Deep underwater scene!

Hello everyone!

Happy Saturday!

I absolutely love summer and underwater theme cards and made my own background! Are you ready to make it with me?

I have created a deep underwater background themed card combining different stamp sets and have a lot of details. I just love coral reefs from Tropical Scenes so much that I can't stop creating this ocean scene!

I am in Top 3! Yayyyy!

It is a little big size card because it gave me a bit more space to work with. Firstly I blended some DI on a watercoloured sheet in a circular motion using a foam blending brush. Then die cutting a scalloped border rectangle frame out of this background.

Then stamped a shark, watercoloured it, added some dots to its body for some interest and fussy cut it.

Then I hand-painted directly some coral reefs, plants, starfish, seaweeds and sun rays in the water using acrylic paints to my background panel.

I added a cluster of small fishes in the deep water to the sunrays. A sea horse is stamped and heat embossed in white EP, watercoloured. I stamped some fish on a white CS and fussy cut them.

I handpainted a jellyfish in the end too!

Now arranged them all to create my scene in deep water. Added some dots for more interest.

Added that scalloped frame which I made a stack of 4 in all for some dimension and added a sentiment in black.

I hope you like my underwater scene card and are inspired to create for the Cut It Up Challenge!

Happy crafting!

Christmas in July!

Hello to all!

Happy Tuesday!

Who doesn't love Christmas cards for gifting someone, so most of the challenge themes inspired me to make Christmas cards early!

Here is my first slimline card!

I started by die cutting my own base for a slimline card using a scalloped border die out of the white sheet. I created my own background using two different sizes of beautiful poinsettias from different stamp sets. I stamped the flowers in archival ink and watercoloured them. added some leaves as shown in the pic.
