Paper Sweeties June Release Party!

 
 
Hi there!
 
Welcome to the Release Party for Paper Sweeties!  Today is the day to buy those *new* fun summer stamps!  On my project for today, I used the stamp set Surf's Up, which has the boat and fish.  And, I used the stamp set Island Time for the sentiment.  Please scroll down to see my other project today for the Cardabilities Challenge sponsored by Dies R Us!
 
For my card, I started with a white card base.  The background was made using salty ocean and tumbled glass distress inks for the water.  I used a white gel pen and copic marker for more interest with the waves.  The sky was made using mustard seed and spiced marmalade distress inks.  The sequins(Robin Egg) and (Frosting) along with tiny blue beads were placed for the shaker.  Twine(Blueberry) and blue beads to finish off the card.

Another view of my card...



Please follow along with the list below for more awesome inspiration from my teammates!

    If only I had the proper words to convey how much I LOVE this project! I had a similar (but not as fantastic) idea last week, but lacked the proper goodies to bring it to fruition. The sailboat and fishes create the perfect scene! Your inked landscape is marvelous and I adore the sequins within the shaker. Twine makes everything even better, so I love that finishing touch around the perimeter. Exceptional work in both posts today, my kind and talented friend! :o) Have a sparkly day!

    Hugs and blessings,
    Karen

    Your shaker is drop dead gorgeous! Be-u-t-ful watercolored waves. Like looking through a ship's porthole. Awesome! OK, just saw someone else saw a porthole too, so it must be.

    Oh! My! Gosh! Maria, this card is AMAZING! The design, alone, is fabulous, as it looks like a porthole in a ship, and the blue beads and twine are beautiful, but the bright, beautiful shaker scene is gorgeous! The fish, and those fun googly eyes and the sailboat are fab, but that background steals the show! WOW! I wish I lived near you so you could teach me how you made the water and sky. Love the cute birds you added, too! Wow! Just Wow!
