Gal Friday is still hanging out on the beach in her craft room today. I think it is going to be a wild Wednesday as I await the coming storm.
As I mentioned yesterday, today we are suppose to be having a snow storm and they are calling for 20+ inches. Fortunately we are right on the line of 20"+ and 10"+ so we will see what happens. But what better way to stay warm and cozy while I wait than to hang out in my craft room and create.
Today I have changed up the large die that comes in the Sand & Sea suite and I also fussy cut some shells and ran it thru my cut & emboss machine individually to give some texture to the shells.
Check out that background! I wanted something a bit wild and easy to create for the background instead of the designer series paper that comes with this set and I also added some gold flakes that will also be available in the new catalog. Did I mention that the new catalog is amazing?
The background that is layered on a gold foil sheet is a alcohol and ink technique that I started out with this morning. I used photo paper that comes in the ink cartridge packs for my printer. It was a messy and fun technique that's for sure.
As for the die, I didn't want to cover that alcohol and ink layer so I strategically cut it in half and layered it onto the front of the card for some dimension.
If you are interested in purchasing this set at the end of the week I will be offering the cards created this week as a Class to Go.
