Stampin’ Up! Sea Life It’s A Good Day Card
The card I am sharing today, happened by accident. I had cropped a seahorse image from the Stampin’ Up! Sea Life Dies and put the negative portion on my desk on top of a Coastal Cabana card base, I had planned on using the card base for another card. When I saw how it looked, I thought why not… so here it is as a card. I added a Basic White mat, making the negative image show up even better.
My challenge for the day is the Daisy Chain Challenge. Daisies have always been my favorite, not roses as most people choose, so I just had to join this challenge.
The card base is Coastal Cabana with a panel of the same for the background panel and embossed using the Hive 3D Embossing Folder. It is adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
I had cut the seahorse from the Black Glitter paper planning to use on another card, but it turned out not the ideal creature for the card, it being black. I matted it on a piece of Basic White card stock as I mentioned earlier to give a tiny border around the black. A greeting from Stampin’ Up! Hello Ladybug stamp set is stamped in Memento Black ink on a scrap of Basic White card stock, fussy cut, and popped on the card front using a Mini Dimensional and Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
I decided to use the seahorse on the inside panel. The remainder of the card is blank for a message, be it birthday, hello, anniversary, or a dozen other celebrations.
A medium Basic White envelope gets a panel from the 6″ x 6″ DSP Bright Assortment applied to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
If you would like to create this card all the products used are in the post instead of at the end of the post as they usually are.
