Happy Friday! Welcome to another week at the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! This week the team was given a color challenge. We were to use at least 3 of the following colors: Melon Mambo, Calypso Coral, Pumpkin Pie, Lemon-Lime Twist, Summer Splash and Berry Burst.

I started with a panel of Stampin’ Up Friends of the Ocean DSP. I die cut the center out with Stampin’ Up Everyday Arches Dies. I adhered the DSP to a Lemon Lime Twist mat with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I die cut a piece of Summer Splash cardstock with the same arch die I used to cut the DSP. I randomly stamped bubbles from Stampin’ Up Ocean Friends Stamp Set with Summer Splash ink. I dry embossed the die cut with Stampin’ Up So Swirly Embossing Folder. I adhered the die cut to the opening in the DSP.

I die cut a piece of Stampin’ Up Pastel Ombre Glimmer Paper, a piece of Berry Burst and Calypso Coral with dies from Stampin’ Up Ocean Friends Dies to create starfish and seaweed.

I stamped the crab image using Melon Mambo and Berry Burst ink. I die cut the image. I adhered the die cuts to the card front with a mixture of Stampin’ Dimensionals and liquid adhesive.

I adhered the card front to a Summer Splash card base. I stamped the sentiment from Stampin’ Up Ocean Friends Stamp Set with Summer Splash ink. I die cut the sentiment with Stampin’ Up Perennial Postage Dies. I added the sentiment die cut to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I finished the card front off with a few dots from Stampin’ Up Tinsel Gems Four Pack.

The inside is panel of Basic White card stock. I stamped the seaweed with Lemon Lime Twist ink. I adhered the stamped panel to a Lemon Lime Twist mat prior to adhering to the card base.

Thanks so much for hopping by! Up next is Terry Lynn.
