The new-to-me (NBUS) WS Pierced and Stitched Circles die set was used for my circles. The white circles were die cut from Bristol paper while the blue circles were die cut from light blue cardstock (retired). The sentiment and foliage from newly released Magic Wheel Flowers stamp set were black heat embossed on the small blue circle. Used a blender brush to add Mermaid Lagoon distress ink around the edge before assembling the card to a finished size of 4.25”x5”. Here it is in action.
My next project is my first off-the-edge card design. Basically, partial die cutting of the outline dies was done to allow the images to extend beyond the edge.
For the background, two gradient colours of aqua dye inks were ink blended on for a base layer. The WS Sun Rays stencil was then placed on top and the lighter aqua ink colour was blended over the stencil for the sun ray design. Splattered with a darker aqua dye ink before assembling the card to finish.

I adore both of these cards, Trina! I love how perfect the shading of blue on the rocker card and your coloring is fabulous too. As for your off-the-edge card, it's not something I have ever tried with colored images and you have certainly enticed me. Again your coloring is outstanding. Thanks for playing along at Just Us Girls.
Your card caught my eye right away! The otter steals the show every time on your cards! The blue and brown work so nicely together on your rocker card!!! Thanks for sharing it with us at Just Us Girls!
I can see why you can't stop playing with these stamps, these otters are really ADORABLE!! Love, love, love them and both your new cards!! You are able to make CAS cards with any shape and folding :D and your blending is always perfect! Love so much the rocker one, it's absolutely sweet!! And the off-the-edge card looks great with the stencilled/splattered aqua tones, so fresh!! ....How much cute are those otters?? I surely NEED them all!! :D
Two adorable cards using the Otter stamp set, Trina! Love your rocker card ... aren't they fun??!! The off-the-edge card is fantastic. I LOVE the design and would love to give that a try. I doubt mine will work out as perfectly as your card, but you have inspired me to try (as always!). xx
these little otters are adorable Trina, love both cards ♥
You have certainly embraced these delightful otters, Trina! Each card you've done is so adorable and creative! I love that the first one rocks and how you've cut the second one off the page! Wow!
Yay for more adorable otter cards! Keep it going, Trina! :-)
The rocker card is so fun, and the ink blending on the light blue cardstock is beautiful! Thanks for the short video! The off-the-edge card is fresh and unique! The sun rays coming into the ocean are fabulous, and the partial die-cut otters look so happy together!
