Sassy Mermaid

Good morning Rabbit Hole fans!

Today I have a Sassy Mermaid to share with you.

I absolutely love the look of an ink blended background 

especially on a sea themed card!

I used the following 2 Rabbit Hole stamp sets on my card today:

Mermaid Hair

Sassy

Card Recipe

I started with a piece of smooth card stock cut from a Kat Scrappiness
Distressed Edge Rectangle die so I could do some Distress Ink blending.

Next I took 3 different color Distress Inks and blended them down the 

die cut panel. 
Cracked Pistachio
Peacock Feathers
Blueprint Sketch
I sprayed some water on the panel to give it a distressed look

when I was all done.

I adhered my colored panel to a white card base using
Nuvo adhesive.

I colored the Mermaid from Mermaid Hair and her 3 fish friends and cut

them out with my Scan N Cut and popped them up on the front of the card.

The sentiment from Sassy was the perfect way to finish off this card.

I masked off the sentiment "born to be a" so that the "a" didn't stamp and

then I added the word Sassy.  I heat embossed the sentiment with
Brutus Monroe Alabaster White

embossing powder so that it would stand out.

A few Kat Scrappines Clear Solid Confetti Sequins and my card was done.

Thanks so much for stopping by the blog today!

Exciting Announcement!

I have some exciting news to share with you today! I am delighted to announce that I am joining the talented Design Team at 

Kadoodle Bug Designs!

I wanted to thank Melissa for this amazing opportunity to show off some of the cutest SVG images around.  For my first project I will be sharing one of the Cute Animals from the new releases.

Melissa has designed some adorable Halloween animals and I've chosen to use the 

Cutie KaToodles - Boo Tiger Peeker

on my card for today.

This little tiger is dressed as a ghost and couldn't be more cute!

I die cut some colorful patterned paper from Papertrey Ink with the 

Distressed Edge Rectangle Dies 

from Kat Scrappiness.

For the"BOO"letters I used the 

Stitched Alphabet Dies from 

Craftin Desert Divas.

I love how this card came out and I am looking forward to working with more of these cutie patootie images!

Thank you for stopping by today and have a great day, I already am!

Simon Says: Add Some Texture

SSS Wednesday Challenge Add Some Texture

I love this week's challenge to add some texture to your project.  I knew I wanted to use a woodgrain embossing folder on the main card but the treasure map on the front wound up having it's own texture.  I didn't realize how much until I showed my son this card and he actually wanted to feel the map, he said it looked like leather.  That's when I knew it was the perfect project for this week's challenge.  I just love the little DeNami chickie stamps and their Pirate Chickie was just meant for this treasure map!  I used the Distressed Edges Rectangle dies from Kat Scrappiness for the map and I inked the edges with Tim Holtz Ground Espresso Distress Ink after I sprayed it with water and crumpled it up a few times.  

I used the SSS "Circle Friends" stamp set for the fun stitching lines and the Stitched Alpha Dies from Craftin Desert Divas for my "X" marks the spot embellishments.  The sentiment "Ahoy Matey" came from the Papertrey Ink stamp set "Out to Sea" and the banner and circle seal dies are from the 

Spellbinders "Hipster 1" dies.  

I actually made a list of how many companies products I used on this card just for fun and it came to 11.  I really enjoyed making this card and it turned out just like I wanted which is rare.  Sometimes the card ideas in my head don't actually make it to the card itself.  See you next week for another 

SSS Wednesday challenge!

Thanks for stopping by today.  

Have a great day, I already am!
