I have been so upset since I heard the news about the van ploughing into pedestrians on a sidewalk in Toronto yesterday. I was there a short time before it happened. I was at the hospital a short time before 10 casualties arrived fighting for their lives!!
On what seemed a calm, beautiful Spring day, oblivious to the carnage about to happen, I was wandering along a path bordered by blooming crocuses. When I heard what happened, my world turned upside down!
When I put this card together I guess my world was still facing that way.
I have always loved to color and this DSP was a bit of heaven for me. The Just Add Color DSP (which I obtained FREE as a Sale-a-bration item) contains duplicate 12 by 12 pages of uncolored images whichcan be colored with markers, watercolor pencils, Brusho Crystals or Blendabilities. I colored with the Blendabilities which are unavailable for ordering now but can be ordered again when the new catalogue goes live in June.
This image is from a 12 by 12 page containing underwater images.
I have previously made a shaker card using the image of the sea turtle - see post here
There are many more images yet to color.
There are many more images yet to color.
This unit was added to a Whisper White layer embossed with the Seaside embossing folder with dimensionals. At the bottom of the embossed layer I added a strip of the sea weed with tiny orange fish swimming in it.
In the water around the image I added some clear rain drop embellishments ; Clear Wink of Stella was applied to the sea creature.
This is when I noticed ............can you see it?
Rather than take the card apart I decided to leave it. After all that was the way the world was feeling to me.
The sentiment is from "So Many Shells"
Supplies Used:
Stamp: So Many Shells
Inks: Black Memento, Blendabilities
Papers: Basic Gray, Whisper White, Just Add Color DSP
Accessories: Seaside Embossing Folder, Clear Wink of Stella, Dimensionals, Oval Framelits, Clear Raindrop acrylic embellishments
One of the other 12 by 12 pages is filled with houses waiting to color. Below is a card I made using Eclipse technique (See post here)
