Hi everybody! Vanessa here with my first
card using the wonderful new release! I am in love with all the sets!! I had to
close my eyes and pick the first set to play with, otherwise I wouldn't have
been able to decide :) Here is what I came up with
using Oceans of Joy.
What are the eight arms good
for? Holding balloons, of course! I started with a panel of watercolor paper
that I trimmed slightly smaller than the blue card base and applied various
blue watercolors to it to create my background. After it was dried, I adhered
it to the card.
Now I stamped the octopus and the balloons, colored them with
Copics, die-cut the images with the coordinating Oceans Of Joy dies and adhered them to the card
with foam tape. After I had drawn the strings with a black marker, I stamped
and heat-embossed the sentiment onto a strip of black cardstock, notched the
ends and adhered it with foam tape.
So, I hope you liked
today's idea! Can't wait to show you the rest of the cards made with the new
release :) Thanks for visiting!
This is so cute!
