Hi Stampers!
Here is a
card that I created using the CCMC312 Color Challenge along with the SC497Splitcoaststampers Sketch Challenge. 
I hope
you will find the time to visit both challenge sites- great inspiration from
all!
To create this card:
Ink the script stamp from By the Tide using
Sahara Sand Classic Ink and stamp repeatedly onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock.
Stamp the seahorse from By The Tide over the
script using Blackberry Bliss Classic Ink and stamp onto Whisper White
cardstock.
Stamp another seahorse onto a sticky note (or
scrap paper) to create a mask, mask the image that you stamped on the Whisper
White cardstock. Ink the coral stamp
from By the Tide using Hello Honey Classic Ink and stamp over the masked seahorse
image.
Ink the
Nantucket stamp from By The Tide using Blackberry Bliss Classic Ink and stamp
off onto scrap paper before stamping onto the cardstock.
Add a bit of distressing using the Gorgeous Grunge splatter stamp with Sahara Sand Classic Ink.
Use the Big Shot™ with the Window Frames
Collection Framelits™ to cut out the image along with the same size window from
a piece of Blackberry Bliss cardstock.
Cut the Blackberry Bliss window framelit™ in
half and layer behind the seahorse image.
Use a Sponge Dauber to lightly
sponge Hello Honey Classic Ink around the edges- oops! I had to do this step since I
accidentally had some ink from coloring a white button (that I decided not to use) and had a few yellow smudges on the outside of image-
duh! :-)
Ink the World Map background stamp using Sahara
Sand Classic Ink and stamp onto a piece of Sahara Sand cardstock, trim and
mount onto a piece of Blackberry Bliss cardstock, trim and mount onto the Whisper White card base.
Use the Big Shot™ with the retired Adorning
Accent Edgelit™ and cut a piece of the Moonlight Designer Series Paper (DSP)
along with a piece of Blackberry Bliss cardstock.
Trim the Moonlight panel and mount onto the
Blackberry Bliss layer. Sponge a bit of
Hello Honey Classic Ink around the edges as well :-)
Add the 3/8” Hello Honey Stitched Satin Ribbon
bow to the center and adhere the layered seahorse image per the sketch.
Ink the sentiment using Blackberry Bliss Classic
Ink and stamp along the bottom.
Color the Pearls using the Dark Daffodil Delight
Blendabilities™ marker and add to the lower portion of the DSP layer to finish
off the card.
