Making Waves on a Friday Night (Live)

-

 Those who know me, know I love the ocean. Well, I love the ocean when it's not crowded or hot. And I love to look at it more than go in it. But, nevertheless, I love it. So, when Stampin' Up! released the Waves of the Ocean Collection, I knew it was a matter of time before I broke down and ordered it. As it turned out, I couldn't even wait until the collection launched to the public. One of the perks of being a demo...first access! Anyway, this is the first card I made with it!



Measurements
  • Thick Basic White cardstock (5-1/2" x 8-1/2", scored in half at 4-1/4")
  • Blue Foil (4" x 5-1/4")
  • Basic White cardstock (3-3/4" x 5")
Directions
  1. Mount the wave stamp on one of the clear plates of the Stamparatus. Determine placement of the Basic White layer in relation to the stamp.
  2. Ink the stamp in Balmy Blue. Add areas of Pacific Point and Night of Navy using sponge daubers then stamp onto the Basic White layer.
  3. Ink up the stamp again using Balmy Blue and stamp again. Repeat, if desired.
  4. Using a blending brush, add a light layer of Balmy Blue to the sky area.
  5. Stamp the sentiment in the upper right using Night of Navy ink.
  6. Stamp birds as desired using Memento Tuxedo Black ink.
  7. Using a rectangular die or your paper trimmer, remove the middle of the blue foil layer.
  8. Adhere the wave layer to the blue foil, then to the card using adhesive of choice.
  9. Add Waves Rhinestones as desired.
  10. Stamp a wave onto the inside of the card using second generation stamping.

Here's the video of the Friday Night Live where I shared this card:
