Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
Today I have a CASE of a card I saw here using the Seaside Garden set from Spellbinders.
I had a gel print using this technique that the Group of Seven Cardmakers did a
couple months ago. I thought it would work perfectly for an underwater scene.
This NBUS set has some wonderful ocean elements along with the sweet seahorse and
there are dies as well as the stamps. Lots of bang for the buck!
I stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored the seahorse, shells and grass
with Copic markers then die cut everything out.
I stamped some more grass on my background and arranged the colored elements using
some dimensionals. Then I stamped the bubbles on the background and placed it all on this
fantastic 3D embossing. I left the net in the background because I didn't want this seahorse to
get caught in it. :-0

Love this scene you created with the seahorse and that lovely background. Great card.
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy you kept this lovely little seahorse safely away from that net, Bonnie - but what a gorgeous net it is!
ReplyDeleteSuch a wonderful under-the-sea view!

Wonderful Bonnie! I do love anything to do with the ocean - it is beach weather here or should I say it feels like an oven out there!!

I have been wanting that net since I first saw it but it's always out of stock. I love your underwater scene with that darling seahorse, Bonnie. The alcohol panel is beautiful as the ocean and your coloring of the images really brings them to life. I have other seahorse and seashell stamps but I may have to have these too since I love the size and shape.
ReplyDeleteThis has me dreaming of going to the beach! Outstanding card Bonnie and it's a perfect sea scene.

ReplyDeleteYou're so right about your background being perfect for an underwater scene. I dearly love ocean and beach cards yet I seldom make them. I've got all the stuff... well, you know how it goes. Anyway, this is a beautiful card. I like your comment about not wanting the seahorse to get caught in the net.
ReplyDeleteYour gel print made the perfect water for your seahorse! Fabulous card, Bonnie!
ReplyDeleteI just adore this seahorse and set in a beautiful underwater scene Bonnie, and the background embossing goes brilliantly. x
