Calling All Sistahs August Challenge ~ CAS04!! =)

Pin It


HELLO!! =)
I'm here today for the New Challenge over on the Calling All Sistahs Blog!!
EVERY Month on the 18th we'll be sharing a New Inspiration Challenge Photo!! Lets take a look at the NEW Calling All Sistahs August Challenge CAS04!!

I'm SO in LOVE with the NEW CAS-ual Fridays Stamp Sets just recently released!! I've used the Mermaids Stamp Set and the Puffy Heart Love Stamp Set!!

Here they are in FULL if you've missed seeing them!!

 

I wanted to create a Shaker Card for this Challenge!! So I Started by Die Cutting a Star Window for the Front of my Card using  Lawn Fawn Star Die Set!! I wanted to Mimic the Shape of the Star Fish!! Then I Inked the Background using Distress Inks in Tumbled Glass and Chipped Sapphire!! I Die Cut a Second Star and Created the Sandy Ocean Floor and Inked it using Gathered Twigs Distress Ink!! I Stamped and Embossed ALL of the Images and Fussy Cut them all out!! I wanted some of the Star Fish to be Shaker Bits so I Stamped Several!! I also wanted some Hearts to look like they are Floating from the Mermaid!! So I Stamped and Embossed the Hearts in the Puffy Heart Love Stamp Set using Glitter Embossing Powder!! I Stamped and Embossed the Sentiment on the Bottom of the Card Base and added some ColoriQue by Lisa Marie Jimenez Splatters in Black Diamond!! I used Sequins from Lucy's Cards and put my Card together!!
