HD Twilight Under the Sea - Majestic Marine

Today I have five more Hunkydory cards from the Twilight Under the Sea kit - this time the Majestic Marine set.  Here's a picture of the original materials:

There were two sheets of printed AS (Adoreable Scoreable card stock) and one sheet of die cuts.  Here's the set of 5 cards that I made from it:

And now, a closer look at each card.

Card #1: 

For this card, I used the AS to create borders on each side of the border picture.  I used some black washi tape to match the border on the other side.  I used one of the die cut frames to focus on the focal area.  Two different washi tapes top and bottom finished those edges.  I finished the card front with a sentiment die cut - with ribbon from my stash.

Inside:

Borders of the AS frame the stamped sentiment - this one from a HOTP set called Birthday Cheer.

Card #2:

This interlocking gate fold card has pieces of both of the AS pieces as background.  The die cut focal and frame form the "interlocking" pieces.  The sentiment is a tag from the die cut sheet - with a piece of black ribbon from my stash.

Inside:

Two strips of AS form borders on the inside - and a small die cut decorates it.  The stamped message was from a Crafter's Companion Compendium page of stamps called Celebrate.

Card #3:

The "mat" was created with washi tape.  The background/focal was cut from one of the AS pieces - and then the edges were inked with black ink.  A die cut frame, border, and sentiment - all from the die cut sheet - completes the card front.

Inside:

Pieces of AS form the borders on the inside - along with a little bit of washi tape.  The sentiment was stamped from a HOTP set called Birthday Cheer.

Card #4:

A piece of the AS forms the background for this card.  A border was created with scraps of paper from my stash (the black was embossed using a Darice embossing folder called Damask).  A die cut border and sentiment finish the card front (the border was too short, so is pieced behind the sentiment piece.

Inside:

Another stamp from the Celebrate stamp sheet was used to create the message on the inside of the card.

Card #5:

For this gate fold card, I started with scraps from my stash to create the background - then die cuts for the rest - frame, focal, sentiment, and border (which I cut in pieces).

Inside:

Two borders created from scraps of paper from my stash frame two stamped messages - from Crafter's Companion Compendium page called Love and Hugs.
