Day 19 – <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yea! More sentiments stamps today. Since most of these don’t seem to apply to dies that we have already opened, I am imagining the dies yet to come and how they relate to these sentiments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the tag today, I went back to one of my favorites, the goldfish and bowl. Although, I didn’t use the fishbowl, I envisioned an open water fish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To create the wave and the seaweed, I used the wavy corner die from yesterday, day 18. the goldfish is from day 15. The sequins came from day 17, and I borrowed the sunshine from my stash, created with a punch by EK Success.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Assembly instructions<\/strong> –<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Die cut the stitched tag from a bright medium blue cardstock scrap.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Die cut the wavy corner from bright light blue cartstock scrap.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Punch the sun from yellow cardstock scrap.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Attach the sun to the top of the tag and trim the edge.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Stamp the desired sentiment just under the sun with embossing ink, and heat emboss in white.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Select a piece if medium blue, approximately 3 x 3 inches, and wad it up to crinkle the paper. Carefully open and then lightly brush white ink pad across to give the paper some texture.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Die cut the bottom half of the stitched tag from the crinkled paper. Adhere to the tag.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Adhere the blue wave to the top of the crinkle paper to create the water top.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Ink blend a yellow\/yellow orange\/orange spot on white cardstock scrap, from which to die cut the goldfish. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Die cut the goldfish base and scales from the ink blended scrap. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Die cut the goldfish eye\/face from blue.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Assemble the fish – Adhere the blue scrap to the back side of the fish face (eye). Adhere the scales to the fish base.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • To create the seaweed, I selected two colors of green cardstock scrap (about 3 x 3 pieces). I cut one of the corner waves from each, but before taking the wave pieces off the die, used a piece of washi tape to keep them in place. I removed the die and them shifted the die away from the corner about a 1\/8th inch and cut again. The result is several pieces of thin wavy paper pieces, of different lengths. I picked 3 or 4 of each color and attached to the bottom left of the tag to create a seaweed patch, underwater.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Adhere the fish to the tag on the right bottom, in the water.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Add sequins for bubbles as desired.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Add ribbon.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
