Good Thursday morning stamping friends welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. If you are starting with me, thank you, I hope you will stop by everyone’s blog to see the awesome projects they have created this week. If you are hopping over from Mary’s blog, thank you for stopping by. This week we have a Theme Challenge to work with. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card using this week’s theme.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sunset Coast Bundle, Scenic Coast 6 x 6 Specialty Designer Series Paper, Sunset Shimmer Vellum Specialty Paper and Stylish Shapes Dies for my card today.

This is our theme for this week

Adhere a panel of Scenic Coast DSP to a Blueberry Bushel card base. Using the Sunset Coast Dies, cut the sunburst die from a panel of Sunset Shimmer Vellum and the sailboat & birds from a panel of Blueberry Bushel. Using Paper Snips, trim the sailboat off the die cut panel.

Adhere the starburst die to the card front. Adhere the sailboat using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Adhere the birds and waves to the card front

Stamp the sentiment from the Sunset Coast stamp set in Blueberry Bushel Ink on a panel of Basic White. Cut the sentiment out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. Adhere the sentiment to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a few Sunset Sparkle Sequins to the card front.

Adhere a panel of Scenic Coast DSP to the bottom of a Basic White panel. Stamp the sailboat images from the Sunset Coast stamp set in Blueberry Bushel on top of the panel. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Crushed Curry mat then to the inside of the Blueberry Bushel card base.

Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to complete your card. Stamp the large water image from the Sunset Coast stamp set in Blueberry Bushel Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, on the envelope front and flap. Stamp the small water image in Crushed Curry Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper on the envelope front and flap. Stamp the sailboat images in Blueberry Bushel Ink and the cave in Pecan Pie Ink.
