While Samantha‘s challenge post design focused more on the pink shades in the color palette, this time pink is the accent while the cool green colors create an amazing underwater scene.


Samantha featured our sweet axolotl from I Like You (a lotl) and some ocean friends from Mermaid for You, Ocean Shell-fie and You are Sublime. She created the ocean scene using Bayou Backdrop and Distress Oxide ink in Cracked Pistachio and Evergreen Bough.


Thank you for sharing this totally charming inspiration, Samantha!

Samantha joins us today with fantastic inspiration for Christmas in July!




Christmas Fishes plays nicely with the cute scuba diver from You Are Sublime! Samantha gave the diver fun Christmas vibes with the Santa hat and beard from Ho-Ho-Holidays. She even gave him Santa’s sack of toys! The sentiment from You Are Sublime looks amazing white embossed on vellum Stitched Sentiment Banners.


I love the watercolor background that Samantha created with Distress inks and the “smooshing” method. She smooshed the ink pads on a piece of clear stamp packaging with a little spritz of water before applying the ink to a panel of cardstock. She kept adding different inks and building color until she got the blend she liked. Then she let the panel dry before using a blending tool to add more ink to deepen the color.

Your underwater Christmas scene is so brilliant, Samantha! Thanks for inspiring us today!
