IC423 Embedded Seahorse
Added to Favorite

Photo Details
Poster: Cook22

 I absolutely adore the colour palette in the first of Audrie's thumbs and will keep it in mind this week, but I was drawn back more than once to this Seahorse Oval platter, and I thought that the Embedded Images technique would be perfect for it.
Yes, I have some stray flecks of white EP, but on a morning when it took me three attempts to make my apple pancake for brunch properly, I decided not to stress over my card, I have enough of a headache already. I've added a detail shot so you can see the embedded effect better.

A2 navy base. White card embossed with Bubbles wiped with the Brilliance Peacock pad, and layered onto some Bazzill.
I cut a blue oval for the image panel - in fact I did stamp bubbles over it in a darker blue, but that got lost under the layers of EP! 3 layers of clear EP on the oval, and then I stamped the image using Versamark and sprinkled with white EP. Finished off with an everday sentiment - an easy-to-use card.

Thanks Audrie, there's some lovely stuff on that site!

You have been so busy today! If your brunch tasted as good as this card looks you should be very happy! Love the inset photo too.

Aw Sabrina, I am sorry you are having a bad day. I was hoping someone would make a seahorse card and you did! I love the embossing on the dark paper and also love the bubble embossed bg!

This is fabulous, Sabrina! You had the perfect image for it and I love the bubbles of the embossed bg. When I get those stray flecks, I'll usually try an eraser first. Works most of the time, but when it doesn't I usually take a sharpie the same color and dot them

Love those bubbles! And that technique you used for the seahorse is one I must try - it really makes your focal piece into a little "seahorse cameo". Great card!

I have come to the conclusion that buying craft supplies and actually using them are two separate hobbies.

LOVE what you did here with the embedded image and your inspiration platter! I kind of like the EP flakes ~ they looked like tiny sea horse bubbles to me
