CAS Seascape



Hi Again Friends!


I love the sentiments in the Rose Wonder set- the fonts look great with all types of card styles and there is a sentiment for most occasions :-)  

This card will be sent to a gentlemen from our church that has been going through a very tough time battling cancer- our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family for sure....

If you have not had a chance to visit the above challenge galleries yet, I encourage you to do so- gorgeous cards and inspiration!!

To create this card:

Mask a square area onto the Extra Thick Whisper White card base, ink an acrylic block with an Island Indigo Stampin’ Write Marker, lightly spritz with water and stamp the card front.

Ink the lined Gorgeous Grunge stamp with Mint Macaron Classic Ink and stamp over the acrylic block stamping.

Ink the coral image from By The Tide using Island Indigo Classic Ink and stamp onto the background.

Ink the small splatter stamp from Timeless Textures using Island Indigo Classic Ink and stamp onto the background and add the large splatter from Gorgeous Grunge (also with Island Indigo Classic Ink).

Add the Clear Wink of Stella® to add highlights to the background area.

Ink the sea turtle and jellyfish images with Stāz-On® Jet Black Ink and stamp onto Whisper White cardstock, color with Stampin’ Write Markers and an AquaPainter™- Mint Macaron, Tip Top Taupe and Island Indigo.

Fussy-cut the images, add Clear Wink of Stella® and set aside.
Stamp the sentiment from Rose Wonder with Tip Top Taupe and mount the fussy-cut images with dimensional foam.

Stamp Sets: Rose Wonder, From Land to Sea, Gorgeous Grunge, Timeless Textures, By the Tide

Ink: Stāz-On® Jet Black, Island Indigo, Mint Macaron, Tip Top Taupe, Stampin’ Write Markers- Island Indigo, Mint Macaron, Tip Top Taupe; Clear Wink of Stella®

Thanks again for visiting- have a relaxing and safe weekend!

  6. Julie, I think the simplicity of your card makes the scene you've created outstanding. Any more additions to the card would have tilted the balance. You've chosen beautiful colours and have used those colours like the artist you are---perfectly. Thanks so much for joining our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week.
