Sea You Soon! Good Bye to the Drive by Crafts Design Team...


Hello Friends Waleska here from craftinglovew with my last post on the Drive by Crafts Design Team.  Time definetely flies when you are having fun!!! I loved my time on this team and sharing with you my ideas!!! For my last card of course I wanted to create a scene with some of my favorite Lawn Fawn sets from all time, some old and some new!! This long card is very colorful and shows lots of different characters and must haves if you are like me and enjoy making cute cards.



CARD DETAILS:

I started with the card base which is a letter size sheet fold in half, I cut 2 inches so it can fit inside a long business envelope.  I cut different sizes of water waves and colored them with oxide inks in colors: Faded Jeans, Peacoack Feathers, Mermaid Lagoon and Salty Ocean.  For the little island I used Kraft Cardstock, I splashed all the waves with water for a realistic water look. 


For the sky I used Squeezed Lemonade and Carved Pumpking Oxide Inks.  I planned my scene from top to bottom, my inspiration was an image I found of the ocean with lots and lots of little fishes.  I started stamping and coloring all the characters I wanted to use and placing them on the card without adhering them.  I build this big scene little by little and I tried to use kind of the same colors for a harmonic feel.


After I knew exactly where I wanted all my images I started adhering them to my card, with glue and some with 3D foam.  I used a white gel pen to draw attention to some parts of the images and some glitter glue for sparkle.  I finally stamped the sentiment with black ink.


I hope I inspire you to mix and match some of your stamp sets with this card!!!! I had the best time on the Drive by Crafts Team, I learned a lot and made some great friends!!! Take care and thank you so much for all your kindness during my time as a DT Member!!! 

Keep on Crafting!!!

Love,

BE-YOU-TIFUL Mermaids/ Ellen Hutson Mix it Up Challenge

Hello Cardmakers out there! I want to share with you a BE-YOU-TIFUL Mermaid card for the Ellen Hutson Mix it Up Challenge with Lawn Fawn. 


CARD DETAILS:

For this card I started with the background I used Oxide Inks in colors Cracked Pistachio, Broken China and Faded Jeans, I have to say this colors are perfect for Ocean backgrounds.  I added Versamark ink and Ranger Holographic Embossing Powder to the hole background.


It looks very beautiful, after that I die cut the Ellen Hutson Be-You-Tiful word die six times to have a raised look, and color all the mermaids in the same color combination for the border I used the Gina Marie Designs Wonky Stitched Rectangle Dies.


I love the sparkling look of this card so I added more sparkle to the hair, top and tail with the Ranger Bullet embossing ink pen.



I hope you enjoyed my card today and can give this idea a try of making a very sparkling card! I think there is never to much sparkle in a card hahaha!
