I love these new dies!  Shells, turtles and the sea.  So I have been looking for something more than the dauber background I did as a sample for the July class.  I found these lovely washi tapes and blue swirls became the sea!.

I die cut the starfish from gold glitter paper but it needed some more texture, so I daubed it with some Versamark and embossed it with white embossing powder. Now it looks like it might have been at the bottom of the ocean!

There's also a great ocean waves frame and seagulls set for inspiration. I'm thinking black and white for it.

I'll be trying out the stamps next, especially the seahorse and starfish.

This month - wonderful Ultimate Crafts Stained Glass Window dies - CLOSING 15 JULY

SHOP  - Pre-order

A very important part of the card, backgrounds can be so beautiful and essential to highlighting that special embellishment - like Kaisercraft feathers, or Couture Creations Intricutz Turtle.

In the July classes, we will be using some of the first supplies we ever bought when starting our card making – inkpads - and we will see they are not just for stamping!  Used imaginatively in a variety of ways we can create great colourful backgrounds. 

In this month’s workshops, we’ll be exploring a number of different techniques such as daubing, masking and use a brayer to create this great ombre effect.
