Hello Ai fans !!
Today we are challenged with a simple sentiment challenge , I chose to use Art Impressions Beach Buddies #M3154 these little penguins are so stinkin cute , I love them.
I kept this pretty simple , I stamped my buddies and masked them off then I stamped my ink spots on the back ground , I colored my buddies with copics and added a prismatic wave die cut and a banner with my Surfs up sentiment , I added homemade enamel dots ( See below for how to ..)
inside my card I continued the theme
How to make enamel dots….( these seem to be everywhere and I love the look )
I make these so they match what I am working on and I don’t have to buy 5 pages to get the few colors I want , you make these from scraps so they cost almost nothing to make
I use my SU owl punch to get two sizes of circles , I cut these from card stock , I use a molding pad or turn your mouse pad upside down , I then use a stylus to dome shape my dot by rubbing them in circles with the stylus
next I put glossy accents on them and let them dry over night and then put on glue dots .. TIP ** after making my first batch I found that if I put them on glue dots before I added glossy accents then did not move all over and did not need to hold them , let dry 24 hours then use or store for later use .
don’t they look awesome and yes I made them myself and saved MONEY for the fun stuff … AI STAMPS of course ..
