Splish Splash - Daring Cardmakers DT

Happy Friday!

Hasn't it been glorious weather?  Great for the start of the summer holidays as at least the boys can play outside.  It's been a busy week for me but I managed to take time out to celebrate Eid with family.

This week the Daring Cardmakers have a cooling theme - splish splash!  I had a lot of fun making the water themed backgrounds and coupling them with dies and ephemera.

I was a little naughty as I missed last week's challenge due to family commitments so thought I'd make up for it by making 2 cards this week.

My backgrounds were made using distress oxide ink pads and the smooshing technique.  For the first card I framed it with a black stitched circle and die cut 'thank you' in white.  I added a sentiment and a couple of sharks from a pack of sea creature ephemera I bought from Sticker Kitten.  I love a good pun and the set has some really fun ones in with it.

My second card was a lot simpler but I wanted to use up the remaining background so I made another card.

For this one I die cut the 'thank you' on white card then added my background behind it.  I just added an additional sentiment and a dolphin to finish.

You can see more inspiration from the rest of the DT HERE.

I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
