Oh my goodness! It was so much fun to make this beautiful fish with the Stampin’ Up Seascape Bundle and pop it up on this gorgeous Expressions in Ink Designer Series Paper (DSP). I’ve been making cards since 2003 and I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of it. This card is called a Dutch Barn Door fun fold. Here’s a video of a similar card I made last year with the same measurements.
It’s time for another Festive Friday Challenge! This week’s challenge #FF0089 is National Lighthouse Day which is August 7th.
The Inspo List is 10 items you can choose from to create your project. Incorporate THREE or more of the items in your project and link up! #festivefridaychallenge I hope you’ll make a card, scrapbook page or 3-D item and join us. If you want help entering, please email me at Beth@StampingMom.com and I’d be happy to help you! From the Inspo List I used water, metallic and ink blending. You entry doesn’t have to have anything to do with lighthouses. 🙂
Here’s another Seascape Bundle card I made this week.
