Whimsy Stamps - Birthday Fishes

Hi Everyone,

Super excited to be here sharing with you the April New Release over at Whimsy Stamps, and what a line up we have for you. 

I have used 2 Digital Sets, the Best Fishes and Best Fishes Sentiment Set for my card today, these images spoke to me as soon as I seen them and I knew exactly what it was that I wanted to do with them.

I used my Apple MacBook Pages app to merge all the images together so I could bring the focus to the Piranha which is what I chose to work with. 

I also added the sentiment in, I put them all onto an A4 page so I could work out exactly where I was going to cut after the fact. 

I printed onto X-Press It Blending Card using my Brother Laser Printer, then ran the images through my Sizzix Big Shot using a Lawn Fawn Stitched Square die (I will link up a few different branded dies for you).

I began colouring all except the Piranha in Monochrome tones, this way I could colour him in colour and make sure that he stood out even more. 

Using a Lawn Fawn Circle die I ran the images through agin cutting only the piranha out. I then ran the same die through again using American Crafts Cardstock, then one final time using some scrap vellum. 

I put the black circle back In first taping it in place with washi tape, then popped the image up using Foam Squares/Tape, and finally adhering the vellum over the top using Helmar Acid Free. 

I pulled out my Tonic Studios Nuvo Drops so that I could cover up the adhesive on the vellum, but honestly you couldn't see it anyway - but I still added it to set my mind at easer. I did pull out two colours however I only ended up using the Dandelion Yellow. 

I adhered the image layer to a piece of orange cardstock then adhered that to a Couture Creations Card Base. It was actually pretty simple and I love the way that it all turned out. 

I did decorate the inside however I forgot to take photos before we went away.

Don't forget to head over to the Whimsy Shop to grab all the new release images. 

I hope you have enjoyed my post today, if you have any questions feel free to send me a message or contact me via facebook (all links can be found below).
