Orca in Paradise Card

Hello friends!  Here's another card from the archives of last summer!  



When I first saw this stamp set, I knew I had to have it!  Living in the Puget Sound area of Washington, there's Orcas not too far away.  (not that I've seen any of them!)


The stamp set is called "this is paradise" and was created for our Australia & New Zealand customers but anybody can order it.  It's just not show in our printed catalogs.  But it's on our website.

I noticed that the other animals are ones you'd see around the Great Barrier Reef which makes sense that it would be popular down under.  But I didn't realize that there's sub species of Orcas AKA Killer Whales all over the world and some of them are not black and white because of their diet!

The state stamp is no longer available. If I were to recreate this card with current product, I'd use our USA mini-Cricut Cartridge and cut out the Washington State image.  

I embossed the Orca in Black so that I could watercolor over it for the water.
