Sea shells card ~ ink blending, Copic markers & ink sprays.

Hello. Today, I am sharing a tropical sea shells card using ink blending, Copic marker coloring and ink spray trimmings.

Sentiment: Let's Shellebrate!

I love all things tropical. Here is my take on an underwater seal shell scene card.

Helpful tips:

Here are helpful tips for making this sea shell card scene. To begin, use leftover watercolor or other scraps for the trim piece. I used a piece that included ink sprays for color and then trimmed it to accent the shell layer. Next, using Copic friendly ink, stamp the shells near the bottom of a piece of card stock. Then, stamp the sentiment near the top. Next, add loose ink blending in two shades, from bottom to the top, blending where they meet. Also, add light coloring to the shells. I used Copic markers. For accent, add droplets and air bubble lines. Finally, layer it all onto the card base, to finish.

This is another look at the card.
