Wouldn't this be a fun card to receive this winter when it's cold and dreary (or warm and dreary as the weather turned out to be here in Glen Allen today!). The upcoming Friends of the Ocean Suite Collection is sure to be popular with its fun images and bright colors. Do you have it on your wish list?? It will be available January 7!
I used a now closed challenge for the layout so thanks to the Inspire.Create.Challenge for the great sketch to show off my lobster!
I pulled the colors for this card right from the coordinating Friends of the Ocean DSP panel and used Summer Splash for the card base as well as the Soft Waves embossed panel. A narrow scrap of Lemon Lime Twist divides the 2 sides.
The recently retired Deckled Rectangle dies was used to cut a Basic White panel and I stamped a few coral pieces in stamped off Lemon Lime Twist then added the sentiment in Summer Splash right over the top. The panel is then popped on dimensionals.
The lobster is definitely the star of this card! I stamped it in Calypso Coral with the outline full strength and the fill stamped off once. Once it was die cut I popped it on dimensionals also.
Finally a few Sunny Days iridescent dots are added for a bit of ocean-y sparkle and shine to finish this design.
Thanks for looking! Did you stamp today?
