Get Whale!

Hi stampers!  Today I have a card going to a special friend.  She's the only person I've known outside my family for almost my whole life!  We went to pre-school clear up to a year of college together!!!  She's in need of a get well card so I whipped one up the other night after getting my big box of goodies!

In the box was the Oh, Whale set which has a bunch of cute little sayings!  My card is based off the last Freshly Made Sketches sketch by my friend Rita and I was a day too late to enter!  Whoops!  Did I mention the whale is super cute???
Stampin' Supplies:
Stamps:  Oh, whale!
Paper:  Whisper white, pacific point, marina mist, sunshine & sprinkles DSP
Ink:  Pacific point, marina mist
Accessories:  Happy whale clearit, perfect pennants die, 2.5 inch circle punch, large scallop edgelit, paper piercing pack

And guess what?  I didn't have to hand cut the whale!  There is a super cute little clearlit to do that for you!  Holla!  It's a simple card but I hope it makes my friend smile!

Happy stamping!

  1. Okay...silly question. But I see this a lot in your card layers. Is each later a quarter inch smaller than the next? Card base would be 4 1/2 x 5, first layer 4 1/4 x 4 3/4, next layer would be 4 x 1/2. It's just the perfect size boarder around layers. Thanks for the inspiration!

    1. Yes, most of the time I cut my layers in quarter inch intervals. BUT I make my cards 5.5 x 4.25 so adjust accordingly.

    1. Actually it IS listed in the supplies. I've talked about it quite a bit in other posts so I don't always mention it in the text but it's from the perfect pennants die.

Thanks for your comments. I probably won't respond unless you ask a direct question (because I know my limits, lol) but I read and appreciate every single one <3
