Betta Believe It

Isn't this a fun card? Well, you Betta Believe it is!  I created this card with a couple of new goodies from Trinity Stamps.

This die set is called, Fish Bowl Circle Card Add On Die Set, and it comes with the Betta fish die along with the fishbowl decorations. This die was created to fit on a circle shaped card that is created with the Circle Shaped Card Die Set. Of course you could always use it as a focal point on any card such as and A-2.

I used the Funfetti Alphabetti Die Set for the sentiment.  To give my letters a little dimension, I layered two letters together using a dark blue cardstock and a hot pink card stock.

For the inside sentiment on this card, I used an older Trinity Stamp Set that is now retired, but you could use anything you want or leave it blank for your own personal sentiment.  

The supplies used for this card are:

• Fish Bowl Circle Card Add On Die Set
• Funfetti Alphabetti Die Set
• Circle Shaped Card Die Set
• Clean Cut Layers-Circles Set A Die Set
• Rip & Stick 6x9 Adhesive Sheets

Ghoul Party

Did someone say "pool party", oops I mean "ghoul party".  When Whimsy Stamps released this limited-edition Summerween Collection, I just had to have it.  I absolutely love Halloween, so it sure doesn't take much for me to jump right in on a card.  

I used both the Summerween Vibes and Summerween Scream for this card.  I colored them with Copic markers in the following colors:

• C1, C3, C5
• E000, E00, E11
• BVO1-ghost shading
• B63, B66, B79
• RV21, RV13, RV14
• YG23, YG05, G05
• BG10, BG23, BG45
• YR31, Y38, YR16
• Y00, Y04, Y08

For the pool, I used Catherine Pooler's Take A Dip Shaker Die.  Of course, this isn't a shaker card, but I sure would be a cute one don't you think?  

For the pool water, I used the Pool Water Stencil by Crafty Stamp Co.  I wanted my pool to have a Halloween Vibe, so I used Wilted Violet, Peacock Feathers, Mermaid Lagoon, and Villainous Potion Distress Oxide Inks.  The outside grassy area is white cardstock ink blended with Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide.

For the lettering on the sentiment, I used my new favorite alphabet die set called Funfetti Alphabetti by Trinity Stamps.  Not only do I love the size, but I like that the set has upper- and lower-case letters in addition to numbers and punctuation.  

The cobwebs and bats were cut from a couple of other Halloween die cut sets that I have in my stash.

Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you are having a great summer!
