Awesome Otters Challenge

I made this card in response to a challenge where we were only allowed to use certain items.

This is the list of items we were allowed for the challenge:

  • One piece of DSP 4 x 5 ¼
  • One Card Base 5 ½ x 8 ½, scored at 4 ¼
  • Two pieces of coordinating Cardstock 1 ¾ x 5 ½, and 2 ¼ x 2 ¼
  • Two pieces of Basic White Cardstock 1 ½ x 5 ½, and 2 x 2

We could alter, but not add any pieces. And we were allowed to use any embellishments.

Alterations

I did alter most of my pieces. I cut the DSP into three pieces. Next, I cut both the Basic White and Misty Moonlight strips in half lengthwise, so I could spread them out a little and also cut them with the Scalloped Contours border die. I used the 2 1/4 x 2 1/4 square of Misty Moonlight to cut a circle, and then cut the piece for the greeting from INSIDE that circle. Additionally, I used the Hippo & Friends dies to cut my Basic White 2 x 2 square, stamped the otter with Memento Tuxedo Black and colored with Blends.

Details

I colored the cute little otter with Crumb Cake and Soft Suede blends, and the water with Balmy Blue and Misty Moonlight Blends.

I embossed the greeting on the piece cut from the center of my circle. As you can see, I need to order new embossing powder, as mine is pretty old and didn’t work as well as I would have liked.

Last, I embellished with the water drops from the Silver and Clear Epoxy Essentials.
