Seahorse

 

4 challenges inspired today's card...

Try Stampin On Tuesday // #TSOT626 ...A sketch challenge!!  The TSOT team also offers a twist to their sketches.  The twist for this current challenge is to use patterned paper.  I picked some Blackberry Bliss DSP and included the twist.

Hand Stamped Sentiments // #HSS424 ...A color challenge!!  The color combo for this current challenge is Pebble Path, Calypso Coral, Lost Lagoon, and Blackberry Bliss.

Alphabet Challenge // 6OCT2023 ...An alphabet challenge!!  N is for nature.  It used to be that when I thought of nature I thought of the woods but since moving to Florida...nature to me is the sea!!

INKspirational Challenges // #IC300 ...A designer's choice challenge!!  And the choice from Carol for this current challenge is to create a matching envelope for your card.  This challenge is perfect for me because I always make a matching envelope for my cards.




Update:  How exciting to this card picked for one of the "top three" slots over at Try Stampin On Tuesday.   What an honor!!  Thanks to the TSOT team for the shout out on my card!!

  5. I love your interpretation of the "Nature" theme - of course the underwater world is part of nature, especially when you have such a wonderful seahorse as your main motif. The seaweed is a great addition to the scenery, and I see that you've also used it on the envelope. The purple polka-dot background is a great addition, too, alongside with the twine. It's really funny how sea-themed projects are only seen in link-ups during the summer months, so needless to say your card really stands out among the entries so far. Thanks for joining the Alphabet challenge.

    Hugs, Veronika
