Best Catch

Today's card I have used the stamp set Best Catch, I have made a mask for the moon with my 1-1/2" circle punch. Then sponged the background beach scene using some stamping sponges and my ink pads. Then I stamped the two images and removed my mask for the moon and stamped my sentiment. To get the seamless look with your sponging you must use a slow circular motion, and just add small amounts of ink and build up the colour until you are happy with it. I also adhered the front panel to my card base with Stampin' Dimensionals.

Sea of Textures

With this card I have tried to make a undersea theme, I love this new bundle it's so awesome. I really hope it gets carried over to the new Annual Catalogue in June, we will have to see. I have started by putting my first mat of Soft Sea Foam Cardstock through my Big Shot embossing it using the Ruffled Embossing Folder. Then I took a piece of Very Vanilla Cardstock and added some textured stamping before stamping and cutting out all my elements, I then using some twine and dimensionals have layered my underwater theme. Finally stamping and cutting out my sentiment with a circle punch.

Best Catch

I am so excited to show you this card today using the new stamp set bundle available from 3rd January,2019 "Best Catch Bundle". This is going to be a great bundle for my male cards. I started by stamping all my images, then coloured them with my Stampin' Blends and Ink Pads. Then I embossed a piece of Sahara Sand with the embossing folder Pinewood Planks. I then positioned all my pieces before adhering them to my card to create a scene, to see where I would like them to be. I then adhered some pieces with glue and most of them with Stampin' Dimensionals so everything would pop off the page.

Wonderful Moments Watercoloured

I have created this card today using the Wonderful Moments Stamp Set, I have used a Aqua Painter Brush and my Ink Refills to watercolour the image. I have used some of the georgeous new colours Stampin' Up!® released in June 2018. The base card is Georgeous Grape, then my first mat is Mint Macaron and I have done a embossed border with Georgeous Grape Ink Pad and some Clear Embossing Powder. Then I have embossed a piece of Smoky Slate Cardstock with the Garden Trellis Embossing Folder. Then I stamped the Bride in Memento Black Ink and embossed her with Clear Embossing Powder and then with my Ink Refills and my Aqua Painter I have watercoloured her before cutting her out with my Layering Oval Framelits. I have adhered her to a piece of Georgeous Grape Cardstock also cut out with the Layering Oval Framelits and adhered them both together with Stampin' Dimensionals and then adhered them to my card with Stampin' Dimensionals.
