Heffy Doodle and Time for Tea Designs Blog Hop



Hi everyone and welcome to the Heffy Doodle and Time for Tea Designs Collaboration Blog Hop! Our design teams have come together to share some amazing inspiration featuring Heffy Doodle and Time for Tea Designs products, and there is a prize up for grabs too!

We thought it would be super fun to combine stamps and dies from each company to create a card. I love summer and mermaids so my first reaction was to create a fun slimline under the sea card. The base of my card I cut out using the new Slimline Pull Tab Die I just love that scalloped edge. I cut that out of some Bristol Smooth Cardstock and stencilled on some clouds using the Sunny Side up again  stencil and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide.  
To create the sea layer I cut out another Slimline Pull Tab Die and then used the Best Fishes Banner and Border die set to create the wavy sea border at the top. I added the seagulls and Bouy from the new Heffy Doodle You Go Gull stamp set
and the heat embossed sentiment is from the Time for Tea Mermazing Stamp set.


To create the sun rays streaming through the water I used the sunny side up again stencil however it wasn't quite long enough so I just taped off the rays to finish them off. I used a combination of Tumbled Glass and Mermaid Lagoon then finished it with a spritz of water and some splotches of Mermaid Lagoon. I added the Mermaid from the Time for Tea Mermazing, the Oyster and fish are from the Heffy Doodle Sealy Friends Stamp Set and the String Ray you can find in the Heffy Doodle Oceans of Love set.
The Last layer was created the same way by cutting out another Pull Tab Slimline and cutting out the sandbank with the Circle of Love Nesting Dies I coloured this one with a range of earth toned Copic markers. I added some extra details using different corals and seaweed from the Sealy Friends and Mermazing stamp set and finished off with a super cute Turtle from the Oceans of Love stamp set.



I finished up my card with some bubbles outlined in white Gelly roll pen with some Stardust Stickles. I hope you like my card for today I loved taking part in the blog and hope you are enjoying all the inspiration. Don't forget to follow along the hop here's the list to the rest of the blogs. You should have come from Amanda and the next on the list is Cassie.


 Heffy Doodle and Time for Tea Designs will each be giving away £25 to their respective stores.

Winners will be chosen randomly and announced on July 28th on the Heffy Doodle and Time for Tea Designs blogs.
