It's Rebekah here with you today sharing this adorable card made the even cuter Catch A Wave stamp set from Gerda Steiner!

This set is being released today which is just in time for summer crafting! Be sure to check out the Gerda Steiner Shop today to pick up this adorable, beach ready chick!

This card was super easy! The stamps work perfectly for a scene card! No masking needed! I simply stamped the image and colored! I drew in a rough line where I wanted the beach to end and the water to begin and used dots for texture and for a transition.

I added a glaze product to give his little glasses some shine and dimension! I used a cloud stencil and Distress Inks to create the fluffy beach clouds!

Fast, easy, fun and adorable! Is this new set on your wish list? It should be!

Seeing this card of yours MADE me buy this stamp set! My grandson is currently in California and I thought this would be perfect! His first time to the ocean/beach! Love this card.

Well all I can say is WOW. I can not add any more to my comment that Cara has not said above. I agree 100% with her. Thank you for sharing your experience and talent with us all. Xx

WOW! I have to say you’ve blown me away with your coloring. First off, those sun glasses… I just love how you colored the glass section black then over laid white streaks to create the illusion of a reflection of the sun shinning into the cute ducks eyes. I didn’t fail to notice the white dots of his eyes either.

Then, Oh “WOW!” again, how you colored the water. Looks like you flicked upward your Copics to create the deep dark ocean wave rolling in and fading to the whiter crest as it hits and the shoreline.

Really impressive!

Thank you for sharing. I’m so glad today I took a peek.

Hi crafty friends, Noga here and I am so happy to share with you another project for Gerda Steiner Designs today.

My tag featuring the adorable Christmas Kitten 4x6 Clear Stamp Set.

How cute is this set??

To make this tag I took a piece of Bristol smooth cardstock and cut a tag die.

The background was created by blending spun sugar distress oxide ink,I spired some water onto it and soaked it up...
