When I saw our beautiful inspiration image, I was drawn to create another sunset inspired card. But, as I had made a sun inspired card for our last challenge, I decided to use my newest bundle, the Splash & Relax Bundle, to create a fun card. I think the colours also lend themselves to a summer inspired card. And the Splash & Relax Bundle is just perfect for fun summer.
The card base is thick Basic White card stock. The next layer is also Basic White but I have used the water Mask from the Water & Lines decorative masks. I have gently used Secret Sea ink and a blending brush to create my background layer. I love these decorative masks. They make such a wonderful addition to your craft room as they create the most to amazing backgrounds by just adding ink.
I stamped the pool rings in Timid Tiger and Strawberry Slush before die cutting them with the coordinating die. I stamped the ball in Timid Tiger and die cutting it with the coordinating die, I die cut the drink bottle, thongs, glasses and sun visor out of the three challenge colours. I created the flower for the sun visor from the Fern & Flora dies as that was the perfect size. When I die cut the sunglasses I used Sea card stock for the lenses, but before I die cut the pieces I inked the card stock with Versamark™ Ink and sprinkled it clear embossing w and setting with the heat tool. This gives the lenses some shine for added fun. I adhered all the die cutting pieces using glue and Dimensionals.
The sentiment was stamped in secret sea ink on basic white card stock. I die cut this sentiment using one of the dies from the gears and textures bundle. It is a perfect fit and I just had to shorten it and adhere using Dimensionals. . The final touch was three Secret Sea In Colour dots placed around all the elements.
Thanks for stopping by today. I hope you will join us for this colour challenge or feel inspired to create a card of your own.
