Thinking of You

I'm back again today with another challenge card using a new stamp set from Reverse Confetti. As I mentioned on my Monday post, I am not crafting enough outside of design team projects to justify buying anything so if I do I have made a promise to myself to use right away or at the very least, as soon as possible. Case in point today, the new Reverse Confetti Seaside set.


I haven't participated in the SFYYT challenge in over a year so I decided give it another try with the June Sketch for the layout. The color scheme and theme came from a new challenge, The Heart Desires Challenge #1 that I just happened to run across the other day. I used a Lil Inkers Design Stitched circle die to cut out the three circles on a strip of Soft Stone patterned paper for a tall card. It was matted onto light blue cardstock. The waves were cut from Hawaiian Shores patterned paper using the Taylored Expressions Wave Border and then slipped between the mat and cut out circles. I stamped the various sea creatures using Bermuda Bay, Orange Fizz and Blueberry inks and then cut out with the matching Seaside Confetti Cuts. After securing the panel to the card base, I attached each of the animals to the inside of a circle using a combo of glue and foam dots. I stamped the sentiments from the My Favorite Things Label Maker Sentiments using Blueberry ink and then cut out with the matching Label Tape dies. A couple of orange sequins finished it up.
