I absolutely LOVE this image – how many times have you laughed so hard that you literally worried you might just have an accident (don’t be shy – we’ve all been there, lol!).  I didn’t think this card really needed much more than this great image so kept it really simple and coloured it with Copics and mounted it on a card covered with some patterned paper from the Avery Elle Sorbet collection.   The sentiment is from a Lil’ Inkers set called Snarky Sentiments but I can’t find it to link to – maybe it’s discontinued 🙁

Avery Elle: Swim Team

Helloooo!  Happy Monday!  Today I’m featuring a card over on the Avery Elle blog blog using the fabby Swim Team stamp set designed by JJ Bolton.  I love all things aquatic so this set is right up my alley.  I started with a white panel and die cut it using the large wonky stitches die.  I then used the wavy edge die from Custom Panels to cut a piece of masking paper which I placed on the panel and then sponged over with distress inks lightly to create a sea bed.  To add a bit of texture I used the Tim Holtz spritzer with some Copics to create a bit of a stoney effect. Using the other piece of masking paper I then masked the sea bed off and repeated the ink blending in shades of blue for the sea.  I used the same masking technique using the wave edge die from the Swim Team die collection also.

Once my base was created I then stamped various elements from the set to create my little underwater scene – popping the shark, starfish and Nemo up on foam tape for some dimension.

Thanks for stopping by.
