Let's Catch Up



I can hardly believe it, I actually managed to make another card and I got to use the latest sketch from Retro Sketches!  I've decided to put some of my Washi tape to good use, I got it from Freckled Fawn.

Paper: cardstock (PTI)
Ink: Stazon black; Peacock Feathers distress ink
Stamps: Hero Arts (Ocean's of Joy)
Other: Washi Tape; glass gems; MFT Chevron Die; corner chomper

I just stamped the fish on some Washi tape which I had adhered to some white card stock, then trimmed the fishies.

The Chevron is also made from Washi tape and then die cutting with an MFT die.

Lastly I edged the card and the mat with some Peacock Feathers distress ink.

Ok, off to an early start this morning.  Have a wonderful day!
