For our Just Us Girls Challenge #714, Ina has chosen a moodboard by the sea with absolutely gorgeous colors! For your card you can take just the colors, the watercolor effect, the sea-inspired elements, or the feathery textures. Whatever you take from it, tell us about what inspired you. Here is my seaside card using the colors and shells.
Stampin' Up!: By the Seashore stamp set
Ranger: Distress ink pads
Versafine: Onyx black ink pad
Simon Says Stamp: Sequins
I stamped the shells first, then taped off the edges of my panel with Post-it tape. I ink blended an ombré mix of Wilted Violet, Chipped Sapphire and Peacock Feathers distress inks. I cut a mat with a piece of lavender cardstock and mounted it on my mini slimline card base. Last, I adhered the stamped panel and sequins. Done!
Please join us with the beautiful moodboard!

Your shells were the perfect size for this mini slimline! This is lovely, Carol!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful ink blending on that masked panel! I love your big shells lined up and the addition of the sequins. Great take on the Moodboard!
ReplyDeleteI love your design on this one, Carol. Love that ink blended strip down the middle and those fabulous shells stamped over the edge of it. I tried to enlarge the photo so I could see what is inside the shell outlines. Are they words or some other texture? Whatever the case, I love them. Nice job with the placement of the sequins too!
ReplyDeleteCarol... gorgeous distress combination! Those seashells are wonderful. At first glance I thought you had stamped an outline, masked then stamped a word background over the outline. But I think this is the design of the seashell. I am going to check them out. Beautiful card!!
ReplyDeleteThose inks blended beautifully down the center of your card, Carol, and made a great backdrop for your seashells.
ReplyDeleteSuper blended background for those pretty sea shells Carol. Lovely CAS card.
