A big Congrats to Karen, the newest Featured Stamper (FS688) on Splitcoast! She has a fun, colorful gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I liked the brilliant blue color & fish theme, so I kept those. But I used different images & dies & changed the layout.

This fun greeting cracks me up & the first thing I said when I read it was “we need a shark image” (or a bigger boat, lol). So the folks at Rubbernecker showed me this shark & I loved it. I colored the areas that needed it then used my out of the box technique to have him coming out of the circle. I put the layered circle w/ the shark onto a larger cobalt blue bg & die cut the different waves at the bottom to add on top.

Here are the Copics I used:

For the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge, we’re headed to a lovely quilt shop & I was inspired by THIS picture. The little multicolor squares reminded me of this new background stamp. 

I put the background image into my Misti & used some green, blue, pink & purple inks, one color at a time & stamped onto the white cardstock. The layering flowers were stamped using the pink, blue & purple inks for the different flower layers & die cut w/ the matching dies. I white embossed the greeting onto the narrow purple strip & used one scallop of a large oval scallop die to cut the ends.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
