Stayin' Afloat Shaker Card by Jil Lebel

Hello Ai fans!

I can hardly believe it, but this is the last official month of summer even though it still feels like summer for quite a few more months here in Florida. I wanted to do another summer card before I started to think about the upcoming cooler months. I figured that a shaker card with the Stayin' Afloat Set would be perfect!

The image is stamped onto Spectrum Noir Ultra Smooth paper with the MFT Extreme Black Ink and colored with Copic markers before I fussy cut it out. The colors are listed at the end of this post. The frame is cut out of the patterned paper using nested die cuts.  The same dies were use to cut a piece of yellow fun foam that was sandwiched between two pieces of Stick It adhesive.  The piece of fun foam was attached to the decorated card base and a selection of sequins were added to the inside opening. The top layer of the Stick It adhesive was released and added a piece of acetate that had been cut with just the outside layer of the dies was added to the exposed adhesive.  The pattern paper frame was added with glossy accents.  The greeting was added with a piece of the same fun foam that was saved from the center of the frame cut.

Copic Colors Used:
Faces - E000, E00, E11, R20, R24
Hair - C1, C3, C5, Y02, Y21, E13, E30,31,E35
Bathingsuits - C3, C1, C00
Red - R81, R83, R85
Blue - B21, B24, B26
Yellow - Y11, Y13, Y15, Y17
Teal - BG11, BG15

Thanks for stopping by and Have a Great Day!
