Sea Shaker Card

Today I am up on the Trinity YouTube channel (link to YouTube Video on the Trinity channel) showing how to make a sea shaker card using numerous products from the Trinity Stamps new release.  I was so excited to use the Scenes from the Sea stencil and a lot of my video focuses on the use of the stencil to create the backdrop.

1. I stamped images from the Turtley Awesome, Ocean Reef builder and Mermaid Wishes stamp set and copic colored them.
2. I blended a light layer of China blue distress ink on an A2 panel of Bristol Smooth Cardstock with the Trinity blending brushes.  Then I used the stencils to blend several colors of distress ink as shown in the video.  After all the layers were made, I used Glitter Kiss glitter paste to put a layer of glitter on each of the sea plants.  Finally I used some Wow embossing powder at the base of each sea plant and heat set it.
3. Finally I cut the panel to create both a border and inner backdrop.  I adhered a piece of acetate to the border and then adhered double sided foam adhesive.  I glued the critters and some drops.  Placing sequins on the backdrop, I then adhered the border and closed up the shaker card.

Thank you for stopping by.  I hope that you will try out the stencils- they are a ton of fun!
