Picket Fence ~ Be a Unicorn of the Sea

Hey there crafty friends!

Crystal here with a couple super fun cards to share today using the fabulous Be a Unicorn of the Sea stamp set by Picket Fence. Oh my goodness… this is an adorable set!!

I paired this fabulous set with the beautiful Watercolor Wishes paper by Lawn Fawn. I stamped the schools of fish and bubbles directly on the Watercolor Wishes paper using Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide ink and Powder Blue ink by Gina K. Designs. I adhered that to another layer from the paper pad and then I set it aside.

I stamped several of the narwhals and started coloring… I wanted my narwhals to have some pink-purple so I started by coloring them with the V000 Copic marker. I then added some grays to the narwhals using C00, C2, and C3.

I fussy cut the narwhals and adhered them to my panels… popping up one of the narwhals for dimension. Once I had my panels done, I set them on the white card base so I could decide where to put the sentiment. Using my stamp platform I positioned the sentiment just so and was able to remove the panel and then stamp without worrying about getting extra ink on my panel. For my first card, I stamped the sentiment with Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide ink and then just barely inked up the bottom portion of the sentiment with the Powder Blue ink and stamped it again.

I love the effect it gives to the sentiment!

For my second card, I did all the same steps except I turned my card base and made my panel slightly larger to fit the card. For the sentiment on this one, I just used Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide ink.

To finish off both of my cards I added drops of the gorgeous Nuvo Dream Drops Fairy Wings. Oh my goodness the color of these drops is seriously dreamy! Love them!!

Inky Hugs,

Crystal

Always be a Mermaid | Picket Fence | Scrapping for Less

Jun 4th

Hello, it’s Stacy from Craftaholicmomma up today on the Scrapping for Less blog. For the month of June we will be focusing on “Under the Sea” as our theme.

Today I have a card I made using a stamp set by Picket Fence called “I am a Mermaid”. I die cut the card with the Art Impressions Flip Card Die. The papers are from Scrapberry’s “Ocean Enchantment” collection. I colored the images in with my Copic Markers (colors listed below). Full list of products used are posted at the end of this post.

This card was so much fun to make. I think she came out very pretty. I hope you think so too. Leave a comment below if you’ve ever taken an ocean or beach vacation and to where.
