I'm so glad I got a bit of time to craft today because I love the current inspiration photo over at The Challenge - those pillows are gorgeous! I love the colours and this gave me the perfect opportunity to ink up a NBUS Avery Elle stamp set - The Reef. I embossed the seahorses in white and use some MFT dies to cut them out. They're mounted flat while the sentiment is popped up and the gems add a little more dimension. That's it for today. Got a busy few days coming up but hopefully I'll get in some crafty time on Sunday.
Supplies Used:
Cardstock: (White) Papertrey Ink, (Lucky Limeade, Bermuda Bay, Island Indigo, Sahara Sand, Basic Black) Stampin' Up
Stamps: (Seahorse from The Reef) Avery Elle, (Sentiment from Casual Comfort) CAS-ual Fridays
Inks: (VersaMark) Tsukineko
Embossing Powder: (Opaque Bright White Super Fine) wow
Dies: (Inside & Out Stitched Round Rectangles) My Favourite Things
Gems: Recollections

ReplyDeleteI noticed the seahorse on the pillow and how great you had one to use, Jen. Doing a quartet of them on those colors is an outstanding way to make a card for the challenge.
