Happy Friday! Sharing a card today using the new A Whale of a Time stamps from Gerda Steiner Designs. I just love these stamps! Look at that cute octopus!

I kept this one pretty simple to let these cute sea critters take center stage. I’ve inked a background panel with Broken China Distress ink and then inked a Hero Arts Waves stencil with Peacock Feathers Distress ink.

I die-cut the top panel using a Memory Box Ocean Collage die and before adhering these 2 pieces to the card front, I heat embossed the sentiment from this stamp set making sure it was positioned in the die-cut area of the top panel.

I colored the stamped images with Copics and fussy cut them out, but there are also coordinating dies to this set available HERE.

To finish it off, I Copic colored an Elizabeth Craft Designs coral die-cut for a little extra interest on the card.

I’ll be sharing another fun card using this stamp set on Monday. Probably one of my very favorite ocean themed stamp sets this year!

Hope you have a great weekend and thanks for stopping by!
