This is such a fun stamp set to play with! For my project I made several cards. I haven't been making too many shaker cards lately, so I was playing around with those. I thought the "just keep swimming" phrase would be a good one to include in cards I will be sending to some friends during this time of social isolation.
I used papers from the Seas The Day Paper pack, Intense Black Ink, Watercolor paints, Waterbrush, and various Tri-Blend markers, for all of the cards I'm sharing today. For the shaker cards, I used the CTMH shaker window products .
Here's a closer look.
used on the bubbles to make it look like water bubbles.
And on to the shaker cards
The brown "sand" is ripped Kraft paper with the sand stamp from this set.
I put some 3-D foam tape to raise it a little and create some depth..
Thanks for stopping by today.
