Hello! Christina here to share another card featuring products from the latest ocean-inspired release. I adore this release, and I have many favorites so far, but this whale from the Block Print Whale Duo is at the top of the list! I paired him with the new Corner Waves Die for a fun cool blue ocean scene. Let’s jump in!
For this card, I started with the wavy ocean water. I die-cut the corner waves multiple times from two shades of teal cardstock as well as white cardstock. I inked the edges of the teal pieces and then spattered them with Uncharted Mariner, Peacock Feathers, and Salvaged Patina Distress Inks, and with a couple of Distress Oxide Sprays -Salvaged Patina and Uncharted Mariner. I stacked these, along with the white wavy pieces, onto a light blue cardstock panel trimmed to 4 x 5 1/4 inches. As I was stacking them, I layered the white pieces under the lighter teal pieces, letting only a small border peek above, and used foam tape to attach all the pieces, fitting them together like a puzzle.
Next, I die-cut the whale and his spout. I used blue cardstock for the whale and teal for the spout. I gave both pieces the same treatment as the wavy water pieces, inking the edges and adding plenty of spatter. Then I assembled the diecut pieces and attached them to my card front, tucking him slightly behind the water.
To finish things up, I added the Happy Birthday Vintage Sentiment diecut, choosing black and white cardstock, and a scattering of sparkling sequins for embellishment.
Thank you so much for visiting today and reading about my latest ocean-inspired card design using products from the latest release. See you again soon!
