Greeting my blogging friends! I don't have anything crafty today, my cousin came to visit from Australia. So, we decided to take him up north to the beautiful seacoast of Maine. Here are a few pictures from Kennebuckport.

Of course, cannot leave Maine without having some seafood, how about some steamers and "chowda"!


Plus, the most famous lobster roll!!!


Finally, a beautiful sunset view.

Softencil Tuesdays

Hello and happy Tuesday!   Hope you are ready for some Softpencil fun!  Trying to do something different this week, I'm using the Halloween Collection stickers.  You can check it HERE!  So, time to get inky.  To create the background, I used this extremely difficult technique... using the Faber Castell gelato... just draw like so...

Then, I used a baby wipe to create the background, super difficult, right?!

And finally, I distressed the edges with the Faber Castell big brush pens in brown and added stickles.

That's for me, for more Softpencil creations... please visit my fellow DT ladies' blog or the Softpencil FB page, click HERE!
