Hi All! Lisanne Here. So the weather will be a little bit better every day so I thought it is time for an ocean themed card. Just a great season to make a lot of fun cards. Today I will use the sea collection from Joset which is great for these type of cards.
First I used a stencil from the Earth Patterns to make a background on the stitched hexagon. I did this with the Elements ink, Mermaid. After that I used the same colour to make the background light blue.
After that I made all the elements for this card. I made the Lighthouse(1754) and the stones from the sea weed(1752) dies. I colored this with different inks like Distress Ink, Distress Oxide Ink, Elements Ink. All these colors look perfect with each other.
As you can see I adhered the Lighthouse on the left. I put the stones in front with some coins in between. I thought it was a fun idea but also the yellow color lift up the card.
I used a sentiment from the Splish Splash sentiment ‘sea you soon’ and stamped this on the background with some black ink.
Lastly I adhered two seagulls with an orange beak. Love these small seagulls at the card, not in real haha.
And here is the whole card. I hope you enjoy creating this card as much as I did. Thank you so much for following along. Sea you soon!
