(New Post) Freshly Made Sketches Sea Turtle Card

 Freshly Made Sketches Sea Turtle Card

It's time again for a new challenge over at Freshly Made Sketches!

Here is the layout for this week.

This is my interpretation of the layout.

The card base is Tahitian Tide C/S, cut to 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" and scored at 4 1/4".  

The layers are Starry Sky C/S, 4" x 5 1/4" and the art panel is    Basic White C/S, 3 3/4" x 5". 

 I simply used a Blending Brush to add some Pool Party Ink in  circles and then I stamped the sea turtles over top using Pool Party Ink and Orchid Oasis Ink. The Sea Turtle Stamp Set from Stampin' Up! is a double sided set. One side is the solid turtle and the other side is the detailed turtle. 

I stamped some fish using Balmy Blue Ink stamped off once for a lighter shade.

I stamped a Calypso Coral starfish and cut it out and used a Glue Dot to add it on top of some Basic White Bakers Twine that is wrapped around the layers 2 x and tied into a bow.

I splattered some Wink Of Stella over top of the adorable sea turtles.

For the inside I cut a piece of Basic White C/S to 4" x 5 1/4". I stamped some fish in Balmy Blue Ink, full strength and stamped off once.

I then stamped the detailed sea turtle in Orchid Oasis Ink.

I didn't add any sentiments. That way if I need a particular card I can add a sentiment then. Or just leave off a sentiment and write a nice message inside. 😊

Be sure to check out all the other great cards from the other participants HERE!  So much talent all in one place!!! Anyone can join the weekly challenges!!!

Happy Stamping and Creating!

Easter Bunny For Freshly Made Sketches #575

It's a new week and another challenge over at Freshly Made Sketches! 

I just love the Sweet Sorbet In-Color! Why haven't I used it before! It's so vibrant!

Here is my happy, cute, adorable Easter Card!

I used the Easter Bunny Bundle to create todays card. The Easter Bunny Punch is on backorder but you can very easily fussy cut it out. 

Directions:

Cut a piece of Thick Basic White Card Stock to 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" and score at 4 1/4".

Cut a piece of Basic White C/S to 4" x 5 1/4" and emboss it using the Painted Posies 3D Embossing Folder. 

Cut a piece of the Country Gingham Designer Series Paper to 2 1/4" x 5 1/4" and attach to the embossed layer using Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue.  Attach this panel to the card base using Dimensionals.

Die cut a Basic White C/S circle using the Layering Circles Dies. Attach to the card base using Dimensionals. 

Punch out a bunny using the Bunny Punch and a piece of the Country Gingham DSP. *Tip: If you don't have the Bunny Punch, stamp the bunny onto the DSP and fussy cut. When you stamp the bunny use a very light colour of ink so that it barely shows.

Attach the bunny to the Basic White C/S circle using Dimensionals.

Using Memento Black Ink, stamp the floral sprig onto Basic White C/S. Colour using Stampin' Blends. I used Soft Sea Foam and Sweet Sorbet. Fussy cut out and attach to the bunny.

Stamp the sentiment in Sweet Sorbet Ink onto a strip of Basic White C/S. Attach to the card using Dimensionals. 

I used the same floral sprig and stamped it using Sweet Sorbet Ink on the inside of the card and on the envelope. 

Here is another card I made using the same supplies. I just changed the DSP.

Be sure to check out all the other amazing projects over at Freshly Made Sketches HERE!

I hope you enjoyed todays card! 

Happy Stamping and Creating!
