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 Color 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 colors.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Relaxing Waterside Bundle, Waterside Retreat Designer Series Paper and Stylish Shapes Dies for my card today.

These are our colors for this week

Adhere a panel of Waterside Retreat DSP to a Misty Moonlight card base. Adhere a smaller panel of Waterside Retreat DSP to a Misty Moonlight mat. Adhere the layered panel to the card front.

On a panel of Basic White, stamp the tall sea grass image from the Relaxing Waterside stamp set in Old Olive Ink 2 times, the short sea grass in Pecan Pie Ink 3 times, the standing seagull in Gray Granite Ink and the flying seagull image from the Relaxing Waterside stamp set in Gray Granite Ink 2 times. Cut the images out using the Relaxing Waterside Dies. Using the Relaxing Waterside Dies cut the cattail die 2 times in Old Olive and the tops 2 times in Pecan Pie. Adhere the tops of the cattails to the Old Olive die cuts. Adhere the die cut seagrass and cattails to the bottom of the panel with Stampin’ Dimensionals and Glue Dots. Adhere the seagull on the sand with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White, stamp the sentiment from the Relaxing Waterside stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink. Cut the sentiment out using the Stylish Shapes circle dies. Adhere a piece of Gray Granite 1/4″ Variegated Trim to the top of the card front. Adhere the sentiment over the ribbon with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Adhere the flying seagulls to the top of the panel. Add a couple Dots from the Strawberries & Dots to the sentiment.

Stamp the sentiment from the Relaxing Waterside stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on a panel of Basic White. Stamp the flying seagull’s image from the Relaxing Waterside stamp set by the sentiment in Gray Granite Ink. Adhere a panel of Waterside Retreat DSP to the bottom of the panel. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Gray Granite mat then to the inside of the Misty Moonlight card base.

Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to complete the card. Stamp the tall seagrass image from the Relaxing Waterside stamp set in Old Olive Ink on the envelope front. Stamp the seagull image next to the seagrass in Gray Granite Ink. Adhere a panel of Waterside Retreat DSP to the envelope flap.
