Good morning, Crafty Friends! I am delighted to share my first card with you as a member of the Design Team at the Colorful Options Challenge Blog.
We would like to invite you to participate in our June color challenge, where the chosen color for the month is AQUA. If you're not an admirer of Aqua, do not fret, as you have the option to create a project inspired by the rainbow.
I can't wait to see what you create! I wish you the best of luck and happy crafting.
Please head over to our Blog and check out the rest of the wonderful inspirational work from the DT! I look forward to seeing your creation!
To create the background, I started with a panel of Neenah 80# and blended the bottom portion with Altenew Sweet Dreams Fresh Dye Inks Dew Drops and Aqualicious. I used the Waffle Flower Crafts Sea Foam Stencil and blended the aforementioned inks, however, I added Teal Cave to enhance the depth of the water scene. I flipped the panel over and created sand by blending Distress Oxide inks, Vintage and Walnut, and adding texture with black and white splatter.
Next, I used the Waffle Flower Crafts Beach Umbrella Die & Stencil. I began with the stencil on a white panel and again on a teal panel, using the same inks as above, but adding Teal Cave and Galactic Stream. I cut them out using the matching dies and adhered the smaller one directly to the background panel with glue. The larger one was adhered with foam strips.
I used My Favorite Things, Fun in the Sun, to complete the beach scene. The images were stamped, colored with Copic markers, and then cut with the matching dies. To take it a step further, I stamped the girl image once again on the Half Dots Unicorn Paper Pad from Waffle Flower Crafts and then paper pieced it to the image to create a fun polka-dotted suit. I adhered the images using glue and foam strips.
To complete the card, I heat embossed the sentiment from My Favorite Things Little Birthday Notes and added aqua sequins to the card.
