Sealiously Sweet Cards with Vanessa and Anja

Hello to you! Vanessa here with an interactive summer card using the adorable Sealiously Sweet set. These cute seals are enjoying a relaxing day at the pool: 

I created a square card base from white cardstock and colored the edges with Copic Markers. Then I trimmed a panel of white cardstock slightly smaller than the card base. Using the Stitched Semi-circle Dies, I made a mask for my pool. First, I created the water. For this, I applied lines of masking fluid and inked the semi-circle with blue Distress Oxide Ink. I applied small water droplets and removed the masking fluid when everything was dried. Now I adhered a mask over the pool and inked the rest of my panel with grey Distress Oxide ink. 

After I had applied tiny ink droplets, I drew the stones with a colored pencil. I removed the mask and die-cut a small circle from the position where the floating seal was going to sit. Then I stamped my images onto white cardstock, colored everything with Copic Markers and die-cut the elements with the matching dies. To make the seal float and turn around, I adhered a small coin to the back of the image, then a piece of foam tape onto the coin and behind the panel, underneath the circle, another small coin. Now I was ready to put the square panel onto my card base with foam tape.

I added the other images and die-cut the Happy Word Die from white cardstock. After I had colored it with the matching Copics, I adhered it to the card. Finally, I stamped the word "summer" onto a strip of black cardstock, heat-embossed it with white embossing powder and adhered it to the card with foam tape.

Now, let's see this card in action!

I'd love to join these cuties, how about you? Wishing you a happy day! Thanks for stopping by!

Hi everyone, Anja here and today I have something cute for you! I made a slimline card with the Sealiously Sweet Stamps. Aren't these seals way too adorable?! They are going to have some fun at the pool for sure!

My white card base is different in size than a regular slimline card – it measures 7 5/8" × 3 11/16". I cut out a slightly smaller panel from aqua cardstock and used the Staggered Circle Die to create some windows. I trimmed a piece of teal cardstock to go behind the window openings.

I stamped the sentiment in VersaMark Ink and white heat embossed it. For a bit of dimension, I popped up the aqua panel with foam tape.

Next, I stamped the seals as well as the accessory stamps in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with Copic Markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut everything out. I tucked the seals inside the windows and scattered the other images all over the card to complete my fun summer scene.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Have a sunny day!
