Hi All! Happy Sunday! We've had the loveliest sunny day today and more due for most of the week yippee, unfortunately I'll be working away looking out at it Boo! Maybe I should relocate my laptop to the garden 😉
I bought this swirly stamp from Simply Graphic a couple of months ago and have been waiting for inspiration to strike, thankfully the sketch from AAA Cards did the trick!
I masked off my stamp, embossed in white and then inked up the background. My whale is an oldie from MFT - I sometimes struggle with MFTs sentiments so used this one from another set. It didn't look 'finished' until I added the grey semicircle, I guess that's the rule of '3' for you! (though I'm not 100% positive that's the right spot for my sentiment)
Sketch from AAA Cards #193Sea/ whale theme from The Card Concept #158, and the colour from the inside of the mug was the exact match to my new ink pad 😁

I LOVE your new stamp. It makes perfect waves, and that whale is so cute. I'm happy you're enjoying some sunny weather. We've had rain today, but it was really dry--we needed it--so I was happy to see the clouds. Have a good week!
So cute x
Lynne, I love your little whale and design with the "Rule of 3". It's funny how we know when something just doesn't look right. But now it looks perfect! Thanks for joining us at The Card Concept!
Great stamp for the sea and a fab well balanced card design. Thanks for playing at AAA Cards, hope to see you join in with future challenges too.
