Dream Big - Hero Arts
Posted by Amy Tsuruta on October 25, 2017

Dream Big

I've been having fun making shaker cards lately. Today I'm featuring the Seal Family stamp. I decided to do a bit of fussy cutting.

I used Hero Arts Bold Ink - Aquatic Hybrid ink with the Abstract Waves Stencils on both the base and top panel. It goes horizontal on the base and vertical on the top panel. I filled my shaker with the new Winter Sequin Mix. I love the shimmer!

I shared this shaker card tip during the last My Monthly Hero blog hop: I put my main images on top of the acetate panel.

Since I lost the air bubbles on the Seal Family due to fussy cutting, I added enamel dots that I had in my stash.

The sentiment is from the Sun Showers stamp set and has been stamped in Intense Black.

This would make a great new baby card or even a birthday card.

That's it for me, thanks so much for stopping by!

Love the card !!! Bringing family seals home makes me happy because we can not bring the real one.

Jessica Nicholson,

This is a lovely couple ! I love your background.

Marjorie DUMONTIER,

Nice pairing of the sentiment with the seal family stamp. The two directions of the wave stamp evoke the idea of the stamps frolicking about in the sea. So sweet.

Debbie Selby,

That’s a super cool beautiful card! Love the shaker :)

Karthikha Uday,
