Make a Splash

Note - One of the photographs from my Spellbinders note card box a few days ago and the corresponding measurements had some errors. The measurements are all fixed now. So sorry if this caused any confusion for those of you who followed the tutorial. Thank you to Phyllis and Rhonda for bringing it to my attention!

Hello! Today's card is one I shared at the last release party, so it may not be new to all of you. I used Aslea Hopkins fabulous new set, Make a Splash.

I used Copic markers to color the octopus, starting with RV19.

Added RV25.

Then added RV23.

I filled in with RV21.

Then added RV25 to the dots and RV19 to deepen the shading a bit in areas.

For the background, I sponged Memento Summer Sky and Bahama Blue. Then I stamped the scallop bling image from Bring the Bling, along with a few of the jellyfish from Make a Splash. The octopus was cut out and adhered with Pop Dots. I used a scallop square Nestabilities die to to make my card base from Pure Luxury Passionate Pink.

Thanks for stopping by. Have a great day!
