Evening Crafty People! I'm a bit late with my #Gelypostcardplay, card No:28. In fact, the card is still wet, and bendy with the paint I've just flicked over it. I'm amazed that I'm still playing along with the challenge created by #CeriThe Creafter. Only three more cards to go! I was going to call this one 'Under The Sea,' but decided on just 'Wave'
This card started off as that blue swirly stencily piece of paper that I thought would be just right. Only, as I pulled it out of the pile, it had a circle cut out of it! (See circle below, card number 27!) There was enough of the blue left to one side to cover the hole, no one can tell...it's under the net and once it was fixed to a card, didn't show at all.I then die-cut out a load of wavy 'grasses' for the sea weed, plus the anchor, the fish, the lobster and the little diver. The sandy beach at the bottom was made from Woodwares 'Fluffy Stuff' and heat set. Mine is really old, but it still worked okay. Then I covered that with those little beads you find in those tiny pockets of 'Oxygen Absorbers' you get in shoe boxes, or hand bags...mine came from a packet of dog treats! After that I went over it with a little yellow acrylic paint.For a finishing touch, I splattered the whole thing with white acrylic paint, using an old tooth brush, then added the number 28 to the net a little screw-whiff. Job Done... Fingers are still covered in glue! The next job will be to fix a stronger piece of card on the back. That's it for today! Look out for tomorrows card! Thank you for stopping by!
