Sea

Hey everyone!

Great to be back crafting and blogging. I wasn't getting any good ideas and was feeling creatively low since I was away from crafting for quite a while (I shared the reason for my absence in my last post here), but as soon as I saw this week's CASology cue word-Sea, I knew what I had to come up with.




Here's how I made it :
1. Inked a piece of white cardstock with tumbled glass and salty ocean distress inks, darker on the sides and the corners and lighter on the inside
2. Made it look like a white foamy wave by tearing it on one side and stuck it over the card base
3. Used a 'small foot' punch on a scrap piece of paper, used the negative as a stencil of inking up those footprints
4. Stamped the sentiment from Fiskars-all around quotes
5. Finished off the card by embellishing it with an antique metal anchor charm.


Quick and Simple.

Would love to know your views. Thanks for visiting.

Have a great week ! :)
