5 weeks from today I’ll be on my way to my first cruise which provided the theme behind today’s card!
When I saw the colors for the Paper Craft Crew Challenge PCC346 Color Challenge, my first thought was a bright & cheerful beach scene. Beach scene makes me think of my upcoming cruise and my recent trip to New Jersey including Wildwood with my brother & his family!
Here is how I put my card together:
- Card base is Basic Black card stock
- Thick Whisper White is 4 1/8″ x 5 3/8″, with the largest Nested Label Die, centered and die cut
- The negative piece is attached to the base with lots of Stampin’ Dimensionals
- Die cut piece has been inked using Sponge Daubers, I started with Blueberry Bushel for the water, then Granny Apple Green for the land – blended into the water. Next I added a little Poppy Parade on the horizon, followed with Pineapple Punch to finish out the sky. Then I blended the colors together a little to vary the colors.
- Palm Trees and grass is from the Friend Like You Photopolymer Stamp set, stamped in Memento Black Ink
- Piece was then adhered directly to the card base with liquid glue, adding dimension
- Banner is from the stamp set, adhered with a Stampin’ Dimensional on the dove tailed side and a mini glue dot on the left.
