We Mermaid to be Friends

Hi Friends!

A few weeks ago, I had the honour to help Ann out in her booth at Stampfest in Clearwater Florida. It was so fun meeting everyone in person. While I was at the expo, there was a ton of interest in the "Under The Sea" bundle and I realized that I haven't given this amazing set some love in a while.

I decided I wanted to try to do rainbow hair...so this was my attempt at it using Copic markers. I'm not sure if I was overly successful but I had a lot of fun and in the end, that's all that counts :)

I kept my card layout pretty simple allowing the focus to remain on the coloured image with the masked off and stencilled circle background.

I hope you like my card creation for today!

Until next time - Stephen

Quick and Easy "Congrats" card

Hi Friends!

I have a quick and easy card to share with you today that uses minimal supplies and doesn't involve colouring...can you believe I just wrote that?!

I used the "Congrats" word die from the February 2020 Stamp Anniething release and cut it out 3 times using 3 different card stocks...white, gold glitter, and black. I layered them slightly offset to give the look of shadows.

My base cardstock was grey which I scored 4 parallel lines using a bone folder. My top piece of the card simply uses white card stock that I embossed using a star embossing folder. I layered more of the gold cardstock and some black striped patterned paper under the top embossed piece.

To finish off my card, I added some gold and silver splatters using Perfect Pearls mixed with water and added a few sequins.

I hope you like my card creation for today.

Until Next Time - Stephen
