I Brake for Seahorses!

Hello and happy Saturday!

Today I'm sharing an underwater themed card.
I used two sets to make this card.
and


The sentiment can also be found on the full sheet Sea Critters
By the Sea is one of my favorite sets and I realized I had used every image from it except for the seahorses.


The fish was fun to color.  He doesn't actually have stripes.  I was feeling a Nemo sort of clown fish for this card so I drew in the stripes and colored him accordingly.

I Brake for S'Whale Whales!

Hello and happy Saturday!

Today I'm sharing a birthday card I made for my friend.



I decided to create a shaker window card.  The sequins and beads are on the front of the card and you can see through the shaker to the inside of the card where the whale is.  I also used some of the fusible glitter sheets on the anchor.  I just cut a small piece off the sheet and ran it and the die through my Cuttlebug.


Here's the inside of my card with one of the sentiments from the Whale Set.


Here you can see some of the fun shaker elements shaken up a bit.


"Sea" ya later!

I Brake for Sea Turtles!

Hello and happy Saturday!

Today I'm sharing this cute little sea turtle with you.  He's from the set Sea Critters Complete Set but can also be found individually in Turtle Set.

You can find them all at I Brake for Stamps.


Do you want to know how I made the fun anchor?
Check this out...it's super simple.

What you'll need...
Paper
A die
Glitter
Die cutting machine

1. Remove the film from one side of the tape and place it on your paper.  Cover a large enough area to fit your die.

2. Use your die cutter to cut out your shape.


3.Peel of the film and pour the glitter over it.  Do this over a piece of scrap paper so that you can dump the excess glitter back in your container.


4. Shake it off and glue it to your project!

The birthday verse on the inside is from
