Whimsy Stamps June Release - Let's Be Mermaids

Hello!

I have a shaker card for you today, made with the new Let's Be Mermaids clear stamp set from the June release at Whimsy Stamps. 

I stamped my mermaid and coloured her with a mix of distress and zig markers, and then fussy cut her out.

I made my background with distress oxide inks and blending tools over the new Mermaid Scaled stencil. (all links at the end of my post, just click on the pics to be taken to the item in store), and sprayed and blotted with some water to activate and create a watery effect.

I cut my shaker apeture with an oval die and used my oxides again to make the shaker bac kground, stamping out the sentiment on top along with some of the bubbles from the set. I also stamped some bubbles and small shoals of fish onto my top card. I put my shaker card together on my base card popped my mermaid up with some shallow foam tape, and added some extra clear sequins on top to finish.

Whimsy Stamps June Release - Splash

Hello!

This year is rolling by so fast I can't quite believe it's June already!

Today I have a fun and simple card, made using a new clear stamp set from the Whimsy Stamps June release.

It's called Splash and it a versatile little set you could use for many occasions. I love that it works for masculine cards too, I think I'll be making quite a few cards using this set as it also works well with other ocean themed stamps.

Making this card was so easy. First I stamped the waves with Versamark ink and embossed with white embossing powder. Then I used several blue tones of ink and blending tools to colour the waves and create a sky. I stamped the dolphins and seagulls with Versafine ink and then cut a piece of white card with a cloud edger die and stamped a sentiment from the set on top.

I adhered this onto my panel and then trimmed the panel to be a little smaller than my card base and glued it to the base with a piece of craft foam in between to pop it up a little.

To finish I added some some Nuvo Crystal Drops - Morning Dew to look like water droplets.

Simple!
