Trio of Sea Turtles card

Posted on by

I have challenged myself to use the card templates on page 22 of the annual catalogue to make my card today. I have used the Sea Turtles stamp set to make my card.

The colours used in this card are:

 

To recreate the trio of turtles’ card, you will need:

Coastal Cabana card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Basic White card – 5⅞” by 3”
Copper Clay card – 5⅞” by ⅜” x 2
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Scrap Basic Beige card

 

Using the back of the long bubble image and 2nd generation (stamped off once) Coastal Cabana ink, I stamped up the length of the 5⅞” by 3” piece of Basic White card. This provides some background texture and a lovely watery effect.

Merry Tree card for the Stamping Inkspirations Blog Hop

Posted on by

Hello and welcome to the Stamping Inkspirations Blog Hop where we are sharing projects inspired by a sketch. I have used the Merriest Trees stamp set and Dies along with the Walk in the Forest dsp to make my card.

 

 

Colours in this project are:

 

To recreate the merriest trees card, you will need:

Old Olive card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Misty Moonlight card – 5⅝” by 3⅞”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” x 2 – one for the inside
Walk in the Forest dsp – 5 ¾” long – I cut 2 at ½” wide and 1 at ¼” wide
Basic White strip – ¼” wide
Scrap Basic White card & Distressed Gold

 

I used Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to adhere the strips of designer series paper (dsp) to one of the 5½” by 3¾” panels of Basic White. The panel was then glued to the Misty Moonlight panel and then to the Old Olive card front.

Using full strength Old Olive ink I stamped the detail of the tree over the top of the previously stamped image. The tree was then die cut using the 2nd largest tree die from the Merriest Trees Dies.
