Good Afternoon!
Today's card is for the Challenge over at the
Mod Squad Blog hosted by my dear friend, Karen Hightower! The Challenge is to use a typical masculine stamp but make it a feminine card. Here is what I have come up with.
I sponged a piece of white card stock using blue and green inks to create my sea. I used the fish and seaweed images are from the
By The Tide stamp set by Stampin' Up! The sentiment is from
Green Thumb Diva, by
Gina K Designs. I heat embossed the fish, in pink, on the base card stock, then I stamped another one in pink and fussy cut that out, using pop dots to place over the embossed fish, giving it some depth. I tore pieces of paint chips to make the ocean floor, these particular ones have a great deal of texture, like sand paper. Adding a bit of blue and orange Baker's Twine and some adhesive pearls, for bubbles and accents. I also covered the seaweed and fish in a ton of Stickles in corresponding colors. I am sure I can definitely send this to any gal here on Cape Cod! ;)
Thanks for stopping by, so good to be in the craft room again. My daughter treated me to a whole fun-filled weekend in the city for Mother's Day....oh the FUN we had! I will have to upload some of the fabulous pictures we took.
Hope you all had wonderful Mother's Day....whether you are a daughter, a mother, or both, hope you were able to enjoy the day!
Today is also my Mother's 84th birthday! Here's a picture of my Mom and my Daughter from last year's "birthday kidnapping". Oh we gals know how to have some FUN!!!
Enjoy~~
