Hello everyone,
The weekend is over so this week is going to be a surprise as I have nothing planned so what will be will be...
I'm sharing an under the sea project today...using Sebastian from Lavinia Stamps..
He stamps beautifully, all the detail is so lovely..
I stamped in clear embossing ink and then black powder...
When heat set I sprayed him..
and watered him then had to sop the water up..
two inks and a background to play with..
There's the shine...
And tilted a little bit...
Then used my one and only pot of Frantage embossing enamel..
to add some gold and navy blue here and there....
Die cut memory box Hanging vines and planning hanging seaweed and coming up seaweed..
Oooo look, another background..and these only happen when you don't try..
trust me on that..
Then using TH new Uncharted Mariner Distress ink..
I stamped some weeds along the bottom..
Then splatter my vines..
New background looking even better...
Glued down those vines to look like they are growing up...
Added an anchor which was a die cut and layered three times then sprayed for quite awhile to get the old look..

I was really happy with my anchor...
Not too much dimension..

And he here is is with just a simple sentiment gold embossed on black...
So thank you so much for stopping by..
I'll see you tomorrow..
