Can't Wait To See You
Good Sunday morning all! I started with one of the newer stencil called Waves and taped it to a piece of white card. I used a plastic palette knife and spread Clear Texture Paste through the mask. While the mask was still in place, I sprinkled Beyond Blue and Teal marine Pixie Sparkles over it. I lightly spritzed some water over it to activate all the powders, then waited a few minutes and removed the stencil and set it aside to dry thoroughly. Once dry, I cut a white multi-layered frame using the Round Corner Squares. I attached it over the background using mounting foam. Next I cut three dolphins from the Neptune die set and added them with foam to the background. I cut the Can't Wait To Sea You sentiment from the Underwater Life Frame die set in black and glued it to the lower corner inside the frame. I completed the card with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 1/4" x 7 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x
Hi Sue. I do love your imagination, I wish I had just a quarter of your talent. I go to my table with a plan, but it very rarely looks as I thought it would at the end, it makes it so frustrating when you see the end result and is so time consuming, it seems my school report is following me through with the 'must try harder' comments lol. Have a nice Sunday wherever you are in the world, love to all stay well xxx
Morning Sue. A very clever card so inspiring thank you., Sue I may not be able to have internet access next week as i am going away with my Grandaughter and great grand children Natalie has a mobile I shall ask her to show me your blogs. Take care and have fun Kitty
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, i am loving the way the background looks in the closeup, you can see the depth of the creation. The sentiment is absolutely perfect for this see view card with the lovely Dolphins.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
