Crazy Crafters Blog Hop with Allison Okamitsu

Today I am participating in my first ever Blog Hop with the Crazy Crafters! Today we are CASE'ing Allison Okamitsu from Canada. I spent a lot of time scrolling around Allison's blog and having a lot of trouble picking a card because I loved ALL OF THEM! I finally made a decision and went with this one:

I don't have the Fruit Basket stamp or punch yet, but I really liked how the scalloped circles draw your eye to small elements. Having recently received the Magical Mates stamps and framelits dies, I had an idea for using an adorable little character I had noticed in the set. Here is what I came up with:

Aren't those little seahorses just adorable!? The banner at the bottom with the sentiment frustrated me a lot as I struggle with getting Whisper White ink to apply evenly, however I am hoping to buy a heat tool soon and if I was making the card again, I would use white embossing powder (thanks to my upline Louise for that suggestion!)

Here's a list of the materials I used:
