I created this BEAUTIFUL Foiled and Stenciled Card!! I just LOVE the way it turned out and hope you'll watch the Video for an up close look at how BEAUTIFUL it is in real life!!
Stencils, Distress Inks, Deco Foil Transfer Gel and Deco Foil are a combination made in heaven!!

The Image and Sentiment just make me SMILE!! I wanted to create a FUN Scene so I've used several of NND Products to create it!! The Sunscape Stencil, the Sea Borders Die Set, Essential Alphabet Dies, the Shark Bites Stamp Set and the Paradise Palms Stamp Set!! I used Copic Markers to Color my Image and some Tonic Studios Nuvo Drops to add some dimension!!

If you follow me you know I also like to make Jewelry!! Well these Images were just TOO Sweet to not turn them into some Earrings for my nieces!! I had a BLAST creating them and they are SO EASY to create!! Stamp your Image onto some Shrink Plastic!! I used White Shrink Plastic for these!! Then i Colored the Images with Copic Markers!! I Die Cut them out using the coordinating Dies and then used my Heat Gun to Shrink them!! I used some Jewelry Glue and some .925 Sterling Silver Earring Backs to finish them off!! They are READY to give away!!

               Hello!!
                  SQUEAL!!

Aren't you in LOVE!!?? I KNOW I am!! 
Here's what I've made for today!! 

I started by Stamping and Embossing the Shark Frenzy Image twice!! Then I used the Frames & Flags Die Set to Die Cut it out one of them!! I Layered it with the Frameworks Die Set and also cut a Wave Border using the Sea Borders Die Set and the Frames & Flags Die Set to finish the edges to match!! I colored the Shark I wanted to Feature using Copic Markers and then I Fussy Cut him out!! I Colored the Shark on the other Panel too, but just with an N2 no shading and used a iCraft 3-D Foam Square to POP him up!! I Die Cut a Vellum Panel also with the Frames & Flags Die and then took the Pretty Pink Posh Peek-A-Boo Die and created a Spray effect!! I wanted it to look as thought he was BURSTING through the Ocean!! I LOVE the way it turned out!! A few Pretty Pink Posh Ivory Jewels finish off the Design!!

So I Stamped and Embossed the Hope Ribbon from the Word Ribbon Stamp Set all across my Cardbase using WoW White Embossing Powder!! Then I used the largest Star Fri-Dies to Die Cut my Shaker Window!! For the Inside of my Window I used some Sunny Studios Patterned Paper and Stamped and Embossed the "Never Give Up Hope" Sentiment also from the Word Ribbon Stamp Set in Gun Metal Hero Arts Embossing Powder!! 
I added an assortment of Pretty Pink Posh Sequins and Mini Silver Stars to finish off the Design!!
