The sketch is from the CAS(E) This Sketch Challenge from Splitcoastampers. I love participating in these challenges and I actually won the challenge for the card I posted on October 12th using the Gather Together Stamp Set. Yay for me!!!

Here’s the sketch for today’s card. You can play along at this link. CAS(E) this Sketch #345

Tips & Instructions

  • Coastal Cabana Card Base - 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, score at 4 1/4 - Stamp bubbles with Coastal Cabana Ink around the edges

  • Whisper White Layer - 5 x 3 3/4

  • Stamp large image from the Artisan Textures Stamp Set with Coastal Cabana Ink, stamping off first. (Stamping off is when you ink up your stamp and stamp on scrap paper before stamping on your cardstock. This removes the first layer of ink to give you a lighter color.)

  • Stamp bubble images around randomly with Coastal Cabana, stamping off first

  • Stamp Sentiment with Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. I used the “to you” sentiment from the “Cheers to you” stamp and had to cover the word “Cheers” with a Post-It Note, ink it up and then remove the Post-It Note before stamping.

  • Add sequins randomly. Use putty end of the Pick It Tool to easily pick up the sequins.

On the inside stamp sentiment with Black Memento Ink and more bubbles with Coastal Cabana. I know this sentiment isn’t the lyrics to the song but I thought it went well with the card.
