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!
