Crafting a Stunning Underwater Scene Card with The Rabbit Hole Designs

Hello, crafty friends! It's Rick here from The Rabbit Hole Designs, and I'm thrilled to be sharing another creative project with you today. Get ready to dive deep into the world of card making as we explore how to create a breathtaking underwater scene card featuring our very own Salty Air Stamp Set & Salty Air Dies.

Materials Used:

Let's gather our supplies for this aquatic adventure:

• Salty Air Stamp Set & Salty Air Dies from The Rabbit Hole Designs
• Splish Splash 6 x 6 Stencil
• Watercolor pencils
• CottonTail Ink blending Brushes
• Dimensional foam adhesive
• White cardstock
• Various shades of blue and light brown inks

Setting the Scene:

Imagine the tranquil beauty of the ocean – that's the vibe we're capturing in this project. Begin by ink blending the background with three shades of blue ink, gradually transitioning from dark to light to mimic the depths of the sea.

Adding Movement:

To infuse our scene with energy and motion, we'll utilize The Rabbit Hole Designs' Splish Splash 6 x 6 Stencil. By blending ink over the stencil with the CottonTail Blending Brushes, we'll create the illusion of rippling water, adding depth and realism to our card.

Bringing it to Life:

Now it's time to bring our underwater world to life! With the Salty Air Stamp Set, we'll stamp images of seashells, fish, seaweed and the mermaid onto our cardstock. Then, using watercolor pencils, we'll add color and dimension to each element, creating a stunning watercolor effect.

Creating Texture:

No underwater scene would be complete without sandy shores! Using white cardstock, we'll cut out sand mounds and ink blend them using the CottonTail Blending Brushes with various shades of brown ink for texture. By layering these mounds with dimensional foam adhesive, we'll add depth and dimension to our card.

Pro Tips for Card Makers:

• Blend ink in a circular motion for seamless backgrounds.
• Use a light touch with watercolor pencils for a soft, natural look.
• Strategically layer dimensional adhesive for added dimension without overcrowding your card.

And there you have it – a breathtaking underwater scene card that's sure to make a splash! I hope you've enjoyed diving into this project with me. Remember, the possibilities are endless when it comes to card making, so don't be afraid to let your creativity shine.
