Ready for some fun in the sun? Our new ‘Swim Party’ Stamp set is SEA-riously adorable and the perfect set for your next summer card creation!
Our Designer, Tracy, stated that this card was inspired by the ever-famous “Baby Shark” phenomenon, and we are here for it! This card has a colorful stencil background using our new “Anchors and Stars” Stencil. We love this nautical vibe and are even more impressed with Tracy’s beautiful coloring skills! Peep those awesome shadows! OBSESSED! Take a look below to see the steps on how to recreate this card!
How to make this card:
- Tracy wanted this background to be a bit of a layering design. She used the new Anchors and Stars stencil along with the Brass and Bliss ink cubes to create a panel to use later.
- She Used the “Mini Slimline Quilted Cover Die” to cut out a background base out of dark blue card stock.
- She then, used a specialty “Heart Bubble” die to cut a heart/bubble affect for the layering. (She used the stenciled panel)
- She then cut what was left of the stenciled panel to add it as an accent on the navy blue background which was cut from the “Mini Slimline Quilted Cover Die” .
- She set the background aside and stamped the images from the new stamp set called Swim Party.
- She colored and fussy cut them with the coordinating “Swim Party Dies”. I also, stamped out the sentiment from the set as well.
- She placed all of the images and sentiment onto the background using foam adhesive.
- To finish the card, She glued the entire card panel to a small slimline card base, leaving the inside blank to be complete at a later date.
- Later, She added some glitter glue to accent different areas. The unicorn floaty looks extra fabulous covered in glitter!
This sweet card is everything we wanted it to be. Its layers and colors are giving us all the summer inspiration and we are loving how Tracy used this set to create a wonderful and fun Under the Sea Summer Card!
