Same Set Syndrome Blog Hop with Not 2 Shabby Shop

Greetings friends and fellow crafters, today along with some of my crafty friends in the Same Set Syndrome event, are playing with stamp sets from Not 2 Shabby Shop. So hop along and see the fun we are having.

For my project I used the Summer Times Buddy Stamp Set, along with a stencil from my stash.

These are the steps I used to make this card...

1. I cut my black and scalloped edge layers with dies from KatScrappiness
2. For the Scalloped layer, I used post it tape to mask off the edges so my ink blending would stay within the stitched border.
3. Using Blueprint Sketch and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide inks I inked up this panel
4. Position a Tim Holtz Splash Stencil over the panel and Blend in Mermaid Lagoon.
5. Spritz this panel with Sheer Shimmer Spritz and set aside to dry. 
6. Moving over to the stamp set, I stamped out the Kitty, Puppy, Castle, Sun and Starfish using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and  cut the images with my Scan N Cut. 
7. The images were colored using Ohuhu Alcohol Markers.
8. All images except the Castle were adhered using Clear Foam Squares, they are really thin and give just enough of a lift to slightly add dimension. This is how the small shadow was achieved to the lower side of the images.
9. The Castle was adhered using a tape runner with only the flag adhered with the clear foam square.  

I did purposely leave the flag white... I am surrendering... I want to go to the water park and float all day in the Lazy River, however with the C19, that isn't happening...

SO, hop on along and visit Maritza over on Instagram... HERE
