Hey Crafty People!
I really think you would be surprised at how easy this card was to make! I’m still deep in my Make Waves era with Erin Lee Creative so let’s break down the steps!
- Die cut the largest Triangle Post Rectangle die for an a2 panel from Neenah 80lb.
- Starting in the corner of the panel, blend light blue ink towards the opposite corner, allowing the colour to fade out to white. Deepen the colour in the blue corner by blending darker shades. (I used CP inks, and I’ve got them listed below in supplies.)
- Create the look of sand in the opposite corner, again allowing that colour to just naturally fade off towards the blue ‘waves’. Deepen the corner again with a darker shade. Let the panel dry.
- Splatter metallic watercolour over the whole panel and allow it to dry again.
- Cut the Seashell Frame die from the Pale Gold/Champagne Vegas cardstock and adhere it slightly offset on 3 layers of white frames. Adhere onto the panel.
- Cut the Make Waves shadow and sentiment from Neenah 80lb and then cut the sentiment from the same Vegas glitter cardstock to layer on top. Using foam adhesive, adhere to the panel.
- Embellish with blue gems.
Please be aware:
As part of my Design Team and Guest Design work I do often receive free products to use, but I only ever recommend products that I genuinely love.
Also, I know how incredibly lucky I am to have these opportunities, but you don’t always NEED the newest products or the ‘full set’.
So please don’t feel that you need everything.
I like to show a variety of brands and products; this way there will be something for everybody to enjoy.
