Miss Seaing you Friend - Pretty Pink Posh

 Hello Crafty Friends! Sorry its been a minute but I have some Pretty Pink Posh goodness to share with you today. Of course I had to do a few slim line cards. I am loving this style. I got out my much loved Sea Friends stamp set. 

First I inked my background with distress oxides in Cracked Pistachio, Peacock Feathers, Salty Ocean, Blueprint Sketch & Chipped Sapphire. I used some shimmer powder and added water and splattered my background to act as my bubbles. I also added some splatters in a few brown distress ink colors to my sand. 

Then I used some bristol smooth cardstock to stamp out my images and some tombow markers to watercolor them in. (Im sorry I dont have the marker colors listed) 

Lastly I stamped out my sentiment from the stamp set on some regular which cardstock and cut it out. 

Thanks for stopping by!!

Sea Friends - Pretty Pink Posh

Hello Crafty Friends & greetings on this Memorial Day. I have a non Memorial day card for you but its still a wonderful card to send to those you a missing today especially on days like today.

For this card I started with the background which is a three color blend with distress oxides. I used with Tumbled Glass, then Peacock Feathers and finished with Mermaid Lagoon. Then I took out my Waves Stencil, sprayed the back with some pixie spray & then placed it on top of my blended background. I took the same Tumbled Glass oxide ink and blended that over the first 2/3rds of the card. For the bottom I switched  to the Peacock feathers over the Mermaid Lagoon giving the whole thing more ombre effect. I love how it turned out!

I took a clue from my friend and fellow Pretty Pink Posh team mate Gemma with her recent post on copic color combos using this darling starfish from Sea Friends. I used some of my favorite pastel colors on these. For the Orangy Peach I used YR02, YR00 & R000; the pink one is R20, R11, R00 with a light coat of RV00 over the whole thing (glazing techniques are fun and can expand your color palette) Lastly I used Y02, Y000 for the yellow. The dolphin I used N6, N4, N2 & N0. Of course I finished the whole thing with sparkling clear sequins to act as my bubbles!
