About a month ago, I made a purchase in the Ginger Snap Store and was contacted by owner, Cori. I thought that part of my order was out of stock and she was emailing me to let me know. I was floored when she told me she saw my blog and wanted to ask me if I would apply for her design team! What an honor! Of course I said yes and came up with two cards for my application:
This one actually did double duty. My aunt needed a card for a baby shower she was attending. The theme was whales and she wanted the baby's name on it too. I wanted to make something on the Cricut for my application. Whale from Create a Critter, welded in my Gypsy. Sponged with SU ink.
I made a computer generated sentiment and punched it out with SU punches and adorned it with SU satin ribbon.
I thought it would be amusing to put the baby on the whale's "splash!" The baby is cut from Sugar and Spice cartridge. I used a cute Peachy Keen face instead of the cut out face. Colored the pacifier with Copics. SU pearls act as buttons. I added Glossy Accents to the splash to make it more durable.
Entering this card into the following challenges:
Krafy Girls - Get in Shape
Creative Card Crew - On the Beach/Under the Sea
Anything Goes Challenges - Let's Not Be Square
Crafting For All Seasons - Splash Me
Little Scrap Pieces - Use an Animal
The Stamp Man - Anything Goes Celebration
I also wanted to make a Copic card for my application. I got this great digi by Robyn's Fetish for winning a challenge a couple of months ago and finally used it. It's called George Washington. Inked up with Copics. Cardstock, paper, stamps, emboss powder, ink, and brads are all SU.
One Stitch at a Time - Use a Digi
My Mum's Craft Shop - Ice Cream Color Combos (Mint Chip)
Cute Card Thursday - So Distressing
The Poodles Parlour - Anything Goes
Wheeee! I'm so honored that Cori asked me to be apart of her design team. I can't wait for the first project! :)
