Handmade Whale Done card with tile background

Hello Crafters! How are you today? In today’s video tutorial I’m showing you how to create this cute Whale Done card. I will be showing you how to use up your small scraps of cardstock to create the lovely tile-effect background (I adapted this from a fab technique taught to me recently by my Stampin’ Up! upline, Amanda Fowler), and how to build up the lovely punched whale (also from cardstock scraps) which is part of the totally cute Whale Done stamp and punch bundle.

I do love a pun in a stamp set -- I feel like it just adds a really fun feel to your cards! Keep an eye out for a card made using the coordinating papers soon -- I’ve not made one yet but it’s definitely on my To Do list!!

Read on after the video tutorial to find the card dimensions and the full shopping list.
