#TGIFC464: Sending Oceans of Love

This week's challenge at TGIF Challenges is an inspiration challenge.

 

There are so many beautiful floral sets that could work well with this inspiration, but I decided to go another route and create an ocean scene with the Submarine Life Bundle.

 

I used Watercolor Paper, the largest Water Painter, and Tahitian Tide ink to create my background. Then I did some fussy cutting to create the sea grass floor and to add a few sea creatures.

 

Here is a full list of products I used on this card:

Stamps: Submarine Life

Ink: Tahitian Tide, Bubble Bath, Parakeet Party, Orchid Oasis, Fresh Freesia

Paper: Tahitian Tide, Basic White, Watercolor Paper

Embellishments: Iridescent Rhinestones

Tools: Submarine Life Builder Punch, Water Painters, Paper Snips

Adhesives: Stampin' Seal+, Stampin' Dimensionals, Mini Glue Dots

 

This bundle is so much fun to create with! Shop here to get your own.

Happy Stamping!

#TGIFC454: Brighter Skies

This week's challenge at TGIF Challenges is a color challenge. It includes lots of sparkle and shine, which I love!

 

I had an idea to use the Bright Skies Bundle, and there were even a few clouds in the Sunny Days Designer Series Paper that were shades of black, so I've incorporated those as well.

 

That sparkly paper I used for the sun and the raindrops is from the More Dazzle 6" x 6" Specialty Paper pack. It's a must have, in my opinion! Another perfect pairing for this bundle is the Raindrops Embossing Folder. Buy the bundle and the embossing folder, and get the Sunny Days Designer Series Paper for free! 

 

Here is a full list of products used on this card:

Stamps: Bright Skies

Ink: Memento Black

Paper: Thick Basic White, Basic White, Basic Black, More Dazzle Specialty Paper, Sunny Days Designer Series Paper

Embellishments: Neutrals Adhesive-Backed Sequins, Gold & Silver 1/8" Trim Combo Pack

Tools: Raindrops Embossing Folder, Bright Skies Dies, Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine
