Surf's up!
Hey everyone,
The male room challenge theme is Surf's up, and I thought I'd join!
To fit all my elements in I chose a square card this time. The background was first ink blended with Squeezed lemonade, Twisted citron and Tumbled glass oxide inks. Then I placed the Taylored Expressions Splash stencil over it, and used the same inks on top.
I printed 2 Make it crafty digital stamps on Neenah white cardstock. Thery are Surfer dad (the Surfer dad dreaming version that's included) and Palm trees. I colored them with my Copics and fuzzy cut them out. I added details with my white Gelly roll pen.
I mostly used the same colors on the dream part of the image and added a tiny bit of sparkle with my Spectrum Noir clear sparkle pen. I really think this vibe of this image! If you can dream it, you can do it!
I popped up both images with craft foam. I don't usually do this, as I find the cards get too bulky. But I really wanted the dimension on this card. I also stamped, colored and die cut a couple of the shells from the TE Be a mermaid set, and popped one of them up.
The stamped sentiment is Simon Says Stamp Tiny words, and the word die is Birch Press sugarscript Believe cut 4 times from black cardstock.
