Fort Worth OnStage Local Presenter Roundup!
Hello! Welcome to another stop in our blog hop! I hope you've been enjoying our presentations! I had so much fun showing off the upcoming Sea of Textures stamp set and Under the Sea dies. To be honest, I'm not an ocean person, but I loved how easy this stamp set was to use! It makes some really cute stuff, and is perfect for those that love ocean adventures. And you'll be humming "Under the Sea" from The Little Mermaid the entire time, so it's a win win!
So, without further ado, the projects!
This first one uses the NEW Balmy Blue cardstcok and ink to stamp the texture and greeting, and Crumb Cake to sponge the edges of the Very Vanilla sand dollars, 1/2" banner, and embossed stripes. The net-like die adds some fun texture and focus. You can save the cut outs for confetti!
Here's another flower! This one is fun and spiky, and it really stands up! To make this I used the 1 1/4" Circle punch and 15 of the large coral die cuts in Balmy Blue. The first and second layers have four corals each, the third layer has three, the second has two with slits cut to make it overlap and curl up, and the fourth and final has two overlapping and rolled up tight with part of the bottom cut off to make it into a center. I glued the center on with Tombow Liquid Glue, and you can use your favorite leaf punch or die to add leaves. The netting stamp is just perfect stamped onto the Soft Sea Foam cardstock before it is layered onto Mossy Meadow. The greeting is made with the Everyday Label punch on a 1" strip of Very Vanilla.
I just had to do a shaker card. One of the dies cuts out 20 tiny fish, which is just perfect for this! I stamped two large coral onto Balmy Blue in Calypso Coral and the octopus in Balmy Blue. The netting is stamped on the Soft Sea Foam in Soft Sea Foam ink for a tone-on-tone look. For the shakers I cut the fish from Calypso Coral twice and Silver Foil one time and added Dazzling Diamonds Glitter for some sparkle. The Classic Label punch is just the right size for the greeting.
Make this cool ombre effect with your sponge brayers! Start with Soft Sea Foam at the top and roll it over halfway down some Whisper White, then roll Balmy Blue on the bottom and lightly over some of the green to blend the colors. I used the negative of the fish die cut to sponge on the fish. Use a couple of post-it notes to keep it in place and cover the rest of the card as you sponge! You have to push the sponge pretty hard to get a full fish image instead of a bunch of blue blobs, haha. The Sahara Sand to torn to look like rocks for the coral to grow on, and I looked up nautical knots on Pinterest to find the one I liked.
To make this into a class I would just do the first four projects because they use the same colors and embellishments, which makes it much easier to plan and cut. Each person would get the Sea of Textures stamp set, a pack of Pearls, one Pizza Box, and pre-cut cardstock and piece of ribbon in their class fee. I would provide the dies, punches, and ink for live classes and a list of supplies used for to go options. They would have the option to include the dies in their fee with the discounted bundle price. The last two would be on display for more fun ideas.
Here is my class break down and supply list. Feel free to use this with your customers!
Be sure to continue on the blog hop to see the other great projects for the rest of the presenters! I loved what they showed us, and you will too! Check back neck month for videos on how I made these!
