CYHTP July 23 - August 10 - Beach
A new challenge starts today at Can You Handle The Pressure? where the theme is always Anything Goes with an Embossing Folder and an optional twist. Heat embossing is welcome, but not required. An Embossing Folder must be used. For this challenge, the twist is "Beach".
Although my scene is not a "beach" scene per se, when I go to the beach, I go to the ocean. So here we are! I have the good fortune of having the ability to go to the beach pretty much whenever I want, and I do this frequently. There's no place I'd rather be.
To create my card, I used a Kraft card base. I debossed using Ink on 3 Fleurette's ~ Atelier Ink - Shark Tooth White ink, Catherine Pooler Ocean Buddies stamps and dies colored with Copics. The sentiment is from Picket Fence Studio's Swim In The Sea stamp set.
Please head over to the Can You Handle The Pressure Challenge Blog to check out the Design Team inspiration projects. You are sure to be impressed! Then dive into your embossing folder collection and join us with or without the twist! Just be sure to use an embossing folder on your creation!
I'm also playing at:
Love how you debossed the waves, the white ink is so subtle but still gives the look of so much more dimension. Love the stingray stamp too!
ReplyDeleteFabulous card and 'beach' scene!! I too love the beach when it's warm, we don't live near the ocean but have a beach home on one of the Great Lakes so I feel lucky as well to have beach life whenever I want to!!
