Hello Friend with Looking Glass Pearl

Hola everyone! Pocono Pam here! Today I am sharing a card featuring the Looking Glass Pearl from our June monthly add-ons release. This set of three layering dies creates a beautiful underwater scene. My card was was fun to create as I got to play with some of the new Hero Arts Premium Cardstock and Core Inks

I started by blending Paradise and Arctic Core Inks onto a 4" x 5.25" Bermuda cardstock panel. I stamped "Hello Friend" from the Mermaid Wishes clear stamp set in Pitch Black ink onto the blended panel and adhered it to a Dove White A2 card base.

Next, I heat embossed a 3" x 3" scrap piece of cardstock with sand embossing powder and used the Compact Cutter to cut a frame with one of the dies from the Looking Glass Circle & Square Frames set. 

To continue, I die-cut the Looking Glass Pearl layers in Passion Flower, Iris and Eggplant Premium Cardstock.

I layered and glued the seashell, seaweed and ocean floor to the sand frame and trimmed off the excess. I then adhered the layered frame to the blended panel. 

To complete the card, I added dimension to the seashell with alcohol markers, White Iridescent Shimmer Mist (applied with a Water Flow Brush) and a Large Antique Pearl

Be sure to take a peek at the new Hero Hues Premium Cardstock and Core Inks. There's even a handy new Shop by Color page where you can find all of the colorful coordinating goodness!

Thank you for stopping by today. Have an awesome rest of your week!
