Sea Stamps and Color Throwdown #4

Today I'm sharing a card I did for Kerry's color throwdown, I really loved these colors together so I went through my paper stash and pulled out some like shades to give this one a go! I'm using a great TAC set called "Sea Stamps" that is retiring and on sale for 35% off through 5/29. I love this vintage angel fish, I googled angel fish so I would have an idea how to color this little guy... I really had no idea there were so many different types of angel fish out there! I think it turned out pretty cool and I have another Father's Day card done to boot!

Sunflowers

This is another Sunflower card I designed for a virtual swap hosted by Kerry Urbatch, She will be putting together a PDF file with several samples using this set after the 18th. So check back if you would like the file. This set is the featured stamp of the month and I have really enjoyed creating with it. I did a little paper piecing on this one using TAC's free black & white download papers. The image was colored with copics and distressed with cognac ink and embellished with a twill tape bow & button... I really love the shabby chic feel of this one!
