Under the Sea - Global Design Project - Theme Challenge

August 13, 2018
gdp151.jpg

Take me to the Sea is the perfect theme for this time of year. The Global Design Project is bringing you all things nautical this week with this theme. 

Earlier this year when we were visiting San Diego we spent the day at the beach and I came across 20 sand dollars. I've never found one before so you can imagine my delight to find over a dozen of them. Each sand dollar was unique and unbleached from the sun. That experience was part of the inspiration for this card.

Additional inspiration for this card also came from fellow crafter Christy Velasquez (thestampcycle). She created a multi-colored sand dollar card that I adore. She makes amazing cards and you should give her a follow on Instragram.

Ready to play along with us? Check out the Global Design Project blog for details on how to play along. 

Are you Interested in purchasing Stampin' Up! products? I would LOVE to be your Stampin' Up! Demonstrator. If you live in the United States you can order your paper crafting supplies from my online store. So easy. THANK YOU!

I’m not a blending brush expert. Ink blending takes patience, and time but when you stamp on top of it, you can hardly see the mistakes… ha! Spooky trick. I used a circle punch and post it note to create a simple mask and set to blending a moody night sky. Cards created using the ‘Oh My Fright’ stamp set for #gdp568 #ohmyfright #stampinup #cardmaker #cardmakingreels
Teal or purple?! Both are great for a spooky background. 

Colors used: 
Lost Lagoon and Pretty Peacock 
Fresh Freesia and Berry Burst

I can't decide if I have a favorite?  The greeting and bat images are from the 'Oh My Frights' Halloween stamp set

I used hot foil to create this card and a second card with the leftover negative foil from the hot foil die. Two for one! There’s something just so satisfying about peeling the foil away from the card stock. Foil is Light Pink. Foil die is called: GARDEN SILHOUETTE HOT FOIL DIE #stampinup #cardmaker #hotfoil #gardensilhouettehotfoildies
My desk is full of supplies and leftover scraps from my last card so I decided to create a second card for Sketch #gdp566 

I used the Light Pink Foil on white with the image from the Garden Silhouette Hot Foil Die. This foil has a differnt pink tint
My desk is full of supplies and leftover scraps from my last card so I decided to create a second card for Sketch #gdp566 I used the Light Pink Foil on white with the image from the Garden Silhouette Hot Foil Die. This foil has a differnt pink tint from every angle. When I look at it flat the color almost looks purple like Fresh Freesia so I accented with Freesia colored flowers. Products used: • Garden Silhouette Hot Foil Die • Sweetly Sentimental Hot Foil Dies • Light Pink Foil • Basic White, Fresh Freesia and Pool Party cardstock #stampinup #hotfoil #gardensilhouettehotfoildies #cardmaker
