Spe-Shell Day - Craft Roulette #279


 This is my entry for Craft Roulette - episode #279.  Other than the card I made at Paperganza, it has been a little bit since I have submitted a card.  Pink and Main was a vendor at Paperganza, so while I was there I picked up a few sets.  They have some really cute things that have been so fun to color.  

The parameters for this card are:

PROJECT - Kids Card

ELEMENT - Pictures

COLORS - Theater

RANDOM - 1/2 and 12

I didn't really have anything stamp or other with kids on it, so I decided I would do something that kids would enjoy doing.  This little turtles looks like his is living his best life building a sand castle on the beach.  The stamp set I used is Pink and Main's Spe-Shell Day.

I colored it with Copic markers in the following colors:

  • E42, E31, E55, E25
  • Y13, Y19
  • B21, B23
  • R21, R22
  • YR04, YR07
  • YG13, YG05, YG25
  • C0

For the picture element, I cut a piece of white cardstock 2.5" x 2.75".  I cut an opening inside the rectangle cardstock using a craft knife to make a Polaroid frame.  I added a little Copic - C0, marker on the edges to soften them.  Once I had my image colored, I glued the frame on top and trimmed it to create my picture.  I used one of the sentiments in the stamp set for the bottom of my picture.


I struggled a little bit on the colors, so I decided on a colorful stripe similar to Joseph's Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.  

For the random half and half, I used Pink and Main's Hexagon Flip Card Die.  It was perfect!!!!

To finish up my card, I used another sentiment from the stamp set on the inside of the card.


This card turned out so cute!!!  I don't know what I was stressing over.

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have an amazing day!
