This week’s Global Design Project is a color challenge, using Night Of Navy, Azure Afternoon, and Balmy Blue. I’ve been wanting to create a card with the Manatee from the Big Little Things Stamp Set, and shades of blue would be perfect! I began by stamping the Manatee in Night Of Navy Ink, fussy cutting, and placing him on Dimensionals.

Next, I created his background with Blending Brushes, Basic White Cardstock, and three colors of ink: Night Of Navy, Balmy Blue, and Azure Afternoon. Then, I embossed it with the So Swirly Embossing Folder, and used the third largest Textured Notes Die for cutting. 

The next layer was Azure Afternoon Cardstock, cut with the second largest Textured Notes Die. This layer was attached with Dimensionals to Night Of Navy Cardstock, cut with the largest Textured Notes Die, which was glued to a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. 

The sentiment, “Huge Thanks,” is from the Big Little Things Stamp Set. I stamped it in Night Of Navy Ink on a 1″ square of Basic White Cardstock, colored with a Blending Brush and Azure Afternoon Ink. After gluing to the “sea cow,” I attached them with Dimensionals. For a touch of sparkle, I used pin dots of glue to adhere some tiny, retired sequins.
