I had a few moments today to make a quick card for this week's CASology #49, where the cue word is FISH. The only fish stamp I could find was an old wooden starfish that I got from Paper Source right when I discovered stamping. I don't know if I ever even used that stamp before today.
I cut a square mask and stamped the Crackle stamp in Baja Breeze in the square, then stamped and cut two starfish, popping one up with dimensional adhesive. I like the clean and serene feeling of this card.
I will be gone for several days, so the blog will be quiet and I won't be around for comments. I'll try to catch up when I return next week.
Supplies Used (PTI):
Stamps: Paper Source Starfish, Tea for Two Additions, Crackle
Paper: White
Ink: SU Baja Breeze, Versafine Vintage Sepia, Versafine Onyx Black
Thanks for Visiting
