Hello crafty friends! Today starts a new challenge at Addicted to CAS ~ Jaydee is our Hostess, and she is challenging everyone to create a card using the Code Word ‘Fishy’. Our Guest Designer is the amazing Jen .
I recently bought this free form watercolor stencil and couldn't wait to use it on a card...I used three distress inks to create the water, colored the whale with Copic markers and die cut the net with a new die from a Swedish company called 'Gummiapan'. A puny sentiment and a few clear droplets and this card was complete!
We would love to see how the code word ‘Fishy’ inspires you! If you would like to see inspiration from the Design Team, and play along with us, come on over and check out the ATCAS Blog ~
Supplies:
Stamps: MFT - Best Catch Ever
Dies: MFT - Best Catch Ever; Gummiapan - Worn Fishnet
Stencils: MFT - Watercolor Wash - Freeform
Misc: Tim Holtz - Distress Inks (Salvaged Patina, Mermaid Lagoon, Blueprint Sketch; Pretty Pink Posh - 4mm Clear Droplets
