Ahoi Slimline Card

Hi there,

I created this maritime slimline card for the Karten-Kunst Blog:

  • cut out a panel from watercolor paper
  • apply Distress Ink (Broken China, Mermaid Lagoon) to a piece of acetate and mist it with water, press the acetate onto the watercolor paper until you like the resulting background
  • cut out two round Karten Kunst Small Frames from smooth white cardstock and from turquoise cardstock
  • stamp the ship and the lifesaver from the Karten-Kunst Mini Frames At the Sea with Lawn Lawn Jet Black and color the images with Spectrum Noir Triblend Markers
  • cut out the Karten-Kunst - Riesiges Ahoi from vellum and turquoise cardstock
  • adhere the elements to the background panel
  • add a strip of turquoise cardstock to the top and bottom of the panel before adhering it to a cardbase


I hope you got inspired.

Hugs,
