Hello friends! 

Hope you are enjoyng the beautiful warm weather, and hopefully you aren't in a place where the temperatures are extremely hot at the moment. Thankfully here in Edmonton, the weather has wonderful. Even still I wish we lived closer to the beach so I could go dive into the ocean just like todays card reminds me of.

CARD RECIPE

  • Die cut all the ocean pieces you want to use from the Ocean Deep Scene Builder Dies. With Copic markers and gel pen add details to the die cuts. Set them aside.
  • Die cut the pieces for the shadow box card. I used the A2 Scene Builder Card Base Dies to create the skeleton for this shadow box card. I die cut the front of this die set 3 times using progressively darker shades of blue card stock. This die cuts an opening for the card scene, but because I want to create the ocean wave layers I had to cut 3 pieces of the same colored cardstock to cover up the opening which measured 4.5 x 4.25 inches. I then die cut the ocean waves into each layer from largest to smallest, lightest to darkest color.

  • Glue the ocean layer onto the coordinating front card die-cut frame. 
  • Cut the side panels to 1/4 inch on each side of the frames, you will use these tabs to glue later to form the layers of the card.
  • To the back panel of the card base (black layer), I stamped out the sentiment from the Seas The Day stamp set.

  • Attach the 2 middle layers of the scene to the card base. I used red line tape and attached one side first and then the other side, ensuring they fold flat in both directions.
  • For the top layer of the ocean frame, I used the Layered Waves Stencils to add more interest to the front of the card by blending out Salty Ocean Distress Oxide ink. 
  • Start gluing the pieces to create the ocean scene. 
  • Once you are happy glue one side of the card to the base and then fold and line up to glue the other side of the card. 
  • Finish by adding gel pen details and gem stickers.

To the back, I glued a white card panel and left it blank. I think this card would make a great retirement, birthday, or Bon Voyage card. 

Fold flat into an A2-sized envelope and mail it to a friend. 

I hope this Ocean Scene Shadow Box Card inspired you today. Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting!
