Sketch Challenge - Sea Turtle

Here’s the card that I made for this week’s Splitcoaststampers Sketch Challenge using the Sea Turtle Stamp Set.

 
 

The sketch is pretty simple but I love simple! Click on the picture to see other cards posted for this week’s challenge.

 
 

This stamp set has amazing images and it’s a reversible. You can stamp with both sides of the stamp so you can stamp the background in one color and the detailed layer in a different color.

 
 

Tips & Instructions

  • Thick Basic White Card Base - 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, score at 4 1/4

  • Azure Afternoon Layer - 5 1/8 x 3 7/8

  • Basic White - 5 x 3 3/4, stamp the bubble image across the entire layer with Azure Afternoon, stamping off each time on a piece of scrap first to get a lighter color. Adhere to Azure Afternoon layer and then adhere to the card base.

  • On a piece of Basic White, ink the back of the large sea turtle with Crumb Cake Ink, stamping off first to get a lighter shade. Ink the front, detailed side of the stamp with Old Olive Ink and stamp over the Crumb Cake Image.

  • Fussy Cut the turtle and adhere to the card using Dimensionals.

  • Stamp sentiment (from the Gorgeously Made Stamp Set) with Old Olive Ink on a 1/2 strip of Basic White. Cut both ends at an angle and adhere to card using Dimensionals.

  • Add 3 white Sparkle Gems.

 
 

On the inside layer stamp the bubble image with Azure Afternoon, stamping off first to get a lighter shade. Stamp the small turtle with Crumb Cake and Old Olive (like you did on the front). Stamp 2 star fish with Crumb Cake Ink, inking the back and stamping off and then the front detailed image. Stamp some fish with Azure Afternoon Ink.
