Good Morning!
A brand new Challenge is up and running over at the Double D Challenge Blog.
Here is your Inspiration Tile for this Challenge:
Twine!
Here's what I decided to create:
First I die cut the center out using a Spellbinders Standard Circle die. Then I created my wood grain background by scoring every 1/4". Then I just swiped inks in Dove Grey and Teal Blue over the card stock until I got the look I liked....and I loooooove these colors. If you have never made one I suggest you try, it's quite a lot of FUN!
Taking the Circle cut I sponged Oxide Distress inks in Iced Spruce, Faded Jeans, Peeled Paint and Wilted Violet. Then I dropped water all over and spritzed it with Heidi Swapp Color Shine in Sweet Mint, for that fun Oxide look. Heat Embossed the coral/seaweed image from Stampin' Up! By The Tide stamp set in a pretty Seafoam Green. Sentiment Heat Embossed in White from the Simon Says Sail Away -- Starfish, Sand Dollar and Anchor from that same set. Anchor die cut also Heat Embossed in Silver.
Images colored with Copic Markers.
Added some pretty Teal Baker's Twine and tied a few UN-Nautical like Knots in it for a bit of interest. Also added that perfect Charm, a glittery Pink Heart and my embossed Anchor.
Heart is from the PTI Dress Up Dolls--Puppy Love set.
I backed my wood grain panel with Fun Foam so the circle die cut would set right inside, then I was able to add my Starfish and Sand Dollar dies cuts.
Sequins.
Please come on over to the Double D Blog and join in all of the FUN!
