Oh, Whale for CCMC251

I can't believe it's Thursday already!  This week for the Challenge at Create with Connie and Mary we have a great sketch to work with.


I thought about Oh, Whale for this card immediately.  I saw the clouds in strips and the waves fitting right into this sketch.  Here's the card I made.

The card base is Marina Mist embossed with the Cloudy Day EF.  I also used the Cloudy Day EF for the strips of Whisper White to go behind the waves DSP from Sunshine and Sprinkles.  The whale was stamped with Melon Mambo and die cut with the Happy Whale Clearlit.  I also die cut stars in Daffodil Delight with the Happy Whale Clearlit.


 The greeting was stamped with Melon Mambo then die cut using a Bitty Banners Framelit.  The whale and stars are adhered with dimensionals so they'll stand out.  I was pleased with how quickly this card came together.  This week's sketch was such a fun one!!

I hope you will join in the challenge too and create a card with this fantastic sketch.  Just go to Create with Connie and Mary for more details and to link up your creation.

Thanks for stopping by!! See you tomorrow for another Flashback Friday!

If it doesn't move...stamp it!!
