Steps To Create This Card

  1. First, I made my own colored cardstock with some Sea Glass Ink, pressing the ink pad into the paper.

  2. Then, I spritzed it with water and patted it dry!

  3. Next, I die cut it out with the Cleo Slimline Die and adhered the negative pieces to a cardbase with Bearly Art Glue.

  4. Then, I stamped and die cut the Puffins out and colored them in with Copic Markers.

  5. Next, I created a black sentiment strip with white embossing powder.

  6. After that, I adhered everything to the front of the panel with Bearly Art Glue and foam tape.

  7. To finish it off, I added some Portsmouth Sequins.
