Here is the line up (And it's AMAZING!!!):
So
for today's card I wanted to create a special 1st Birthday card - using
the new Oceans of Love and Shellabrate Stamp sets and Dies. I did a
card a little while ago using velllum coloured with alcohol inks and
wanted to take this a little further with a vellum pop-up box!
To
colour the vellum, I scribbled both copic markers and dripped alcohol
inks onto my glass media mat. I dropped Blending solution onto this and
placed my A4 vellum sheet on top. When picking up the vellum, I used a
sideways swiping motion to give a water-like effect.
I did this 3-4 times,drying with a heat gun in between until it looked like this....
I
then used the Lawn Fawn Scalloped Pop-up Box Card Die to cut a box card
and cut some waves with left-over vellum and the Lawn Fawn Stitched
Wave borders Dies. I used a vellum adhesive (Plus Glue Tape roller)to
construct the box-card.
I then stamped out most of the images from the
Oceans Of Love Stamp Set & Shellabrate from Heffy Doodle and the
diver and submarine from the Lawn Fawn You are Sublime set. I coloured
them with copics and die-cut them with the corresponding dies.
I
cut a large number 1 and coloured it with distress inks, clear
embossing it 3 x to give dimension. I also did 1 layer of Judikins
Irridescent Sparkle Embossing Powder. I made some "sand" with kraft card
and die cut with MFT Stitched Basic Edges dies.
I
adhered the waves, sand and all the images onto the box-card, tucking
some of them behind the vellum waves. I stamped the sentiment from the
Shellabrate set in versamark ink, white embossed it, cut it out and
adhered it to the card with the number 1.
Hope you enjoyed this and that inspires you to colour some vellum for your ocean-themed cards!
Thanks for joining us on the hop for Heffy Doodle's first Birthday!
