Hello, hello! I'm popping in to share two cards that I made using the FABULOUS new Birch Press Design release! This release is huge and while I do two monthly posts on the Birch Press Design blog (one coming on Wednesday July 9th) I will be sharing lots more here on my blog. Let's take a look at what I made.
I absolutely love the new Block Print Floating Jellyfish! This card came about because I just wanted to figure out how the jelly comes together. I die cut it from a dark blue cardstock and then worked out the layering. I put the piece aside and worked on the first card. After I finished the first card I really started looking at the blue jelly and realized I could make a card with it. I added some ink to parts of the jelly. The bottom legs of the fish were inked up with seedless preserves. The middle layer was kind of left alone and then I really darkened up the top layer. I die cut a circle from light blue and then added some ink to the circle as well. The kelp was die cut from a bright green cardstock and then inked up with green and teal inks. I used oxide inks and basically used what ink remained on the blender brushes to add the color. The sentiment is one I hot foiled months ago using the Birch Press Sugar Scripts Sentiments 2 set. I layered the kelp on the circle and then added the jelly.
In this close up you can see some of the ink blending a little better. I added the circle to a white cardstock base. Adhered the sentiment and then added all the little sequin "bubbles". The sequins are a silvery blue. I decided to add the panel to a bright green cardstock base and love how it makes the jelly really pop.
