Hi crafty friends,
I would like to share with you today the card I made for MFT Card Design Superstar Clean and Simple Category.
I really wanted to ink up the Friends with Fins and Gill Friends stamp sets. They have been sitting in my craft cupboard patiently waiting to be inked up for a very long time. I love the shark with his big toothy grin! I decided I wanted to frame him in a circle of fish!
In order to do this I took the third largest die from stitched circle stax and traced the inside circle in pencil. I used this as a guide to stamp my fish with my misti. I used two fish from the gill friends set and one tiny one from otterly in love stamp set. I stamped the shark in the centre. I stamped all the images, the fish multiple times, onto masking paper and cut them out! In order to create a circle sea frame I took a scrap piece of card and die cut the second largest circle in the stitched circle stax. I used the scrap negative piece of paper as a stencil. I placed masks on the the images and ink blended the background with distress oxide inks. I splattered with water and some white paint. Once all was dried I removed the masks and coloured the images with copics. I used a black jelly roller pen on the eyes of the fish. I also heated embossed the the sentiment with white embossing powder.
I adhered my one layer panel onto a dark blue card base.
Supplies:
This really spot on! I love how you created movement and all the colors on the card are harmonious so it's a perfect balance visually!
