Craftin’ Desert Divas is also giving away a $75 CDD Store Credit on their blog today! If you are already on the hop then you just arrived from the fabulous Waleska’s blog!
My card for the hop features an adorable new stamp set from CDD called Summer Vibin’. I started my card by stamping the cute little mermaid and sun on white cardstock and coloring them with Copics. I hand cut each with scissors and set them aside to create the background. I used Distress Oxide Inks in Tumbled Glass and Cracked Pistachio smooshed on a craft sheet and spritzed with water to create the water effect. Once everything was assembled I added a few sequins to finish it off.
