Sailor Boy ~ Ollyfant

Again more staps from the Ollyfant Beach stamps, I think this one will come in handy for my Grandson when he's a little older.
the stripes on the card were cut from card stock and glued in place and the image was coloured using Promarkers.


Attention to detail...

I used a sewing machine to add a couple of lines of stitching and a couple of starfish shaped button with a ribbon tied through.

Sailor Girl ~ Ollyfant Stamps

New Ollyfant stamps Beach were used, stamped with Momento ink then coloured with promarkers.


Attention to Detail...

I added a ribbon and puckered it across the card using double sided tape to secure it before top stitching across it in white cotton.

The flower was made from scraps of vellum and paper using punches and then the centre flower was a bought one coloured with promarkers to match the card.






Some zigzag sewing in red cotton was added for some extra detailing.

I added polar white flower soft onto the stamped sprigs for a little dimension.
