Stampin’ Up! Catch You Later

Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone’s week going? I hope you are having a productive one.

Today’s card was requested by my son. This past weekend they celebrated one of his friend’s birthdays. He’s been friends with him since the 1st grade, my son is 26 now. He said all his friend asked for was a card made by me. So, here’s what I came up with.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Catch You Later Cling Stamp Set along with the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by adhering an In Good Taste DSP card front to a Smoky Slate card base. I adhered a smaller panel of In Good Taste DSP to a Misty Moonlight mat and then to the card front.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the cant & fish image from the Catch you Later stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image using my Pale papaya, Pool Party and Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the sentiment from Catch You Later stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the Basic White panel. I cut the image out using my Tasteful Labels Dies. I cut the sentiment out using my Paper Snips.

I adhered the die cut image to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the cut-up sentiment to the side DSP panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On the inside I stamped the sentiments from the Catch You Later stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the cat & fish image from the Catch You Later stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink and colored it using my Pale Papaya, Pool Party and Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Misty Moonlight mat and then to the inside of the Smoky Slate card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the cat & fish image from the Catch You Later stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored it in using my Pale Papaya, Pool Party and Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of In Good Taste DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Friendly Hello CAS Birthday

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to the weekend. I hope you have some fun plans in store for today and tomorrow. I’m working today, but have no plans yet for tomorrow.

Well, we are down to the last few days of Sale-a-bration. I have a couple more cards using Sale-a-bration items for you. Today’s mostly focuses on the DSP. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Friendly Hello Bundle along with the Stampin’ Up! Special Moments Photopolymer Stamp Set for my card today. Both of these items are Sale-a-bration items and are free with a qualifying order of $100.

I started by adhering a panel of the Friendly Hello Designer Series Paper to a Shaded Spruce card base. I adhered a smaller panel of the Friendly Hello DSP to a Shaded Spruce mat.

I wrapped a piece of Fresh Freesia 3/8″ Open Weave Ribbon around the layered panel and tied a bow. I adhered the panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Friendly Hello Photopolymer Stamp Set in Shaded Spruce Ink. I cut the sentiment out using my Tasteful Labels Dies and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few 2021-2023 In-Color Jewels to the sentiment.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Special Moments stamp set in Shaded Spruce Ink on a Basic White panel. I adhered a strip of the Friendly Hello DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Shaded Spruce mat and then to the inside of the Shaded Spruce card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Friendly Hello DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Special Moments Daffodils

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone’s week going? We’re halfway through and on the downhill to the weekend.

Today’s card used some more of the Sale-a-bration items that are available only until Monday February 28th for free. My card has very little stamping today, it’s all about the DSP. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration Special Moments Photopolymer Stamp Set along the Daffodil Afternoon Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by cutting the center of a panel of Daffodil Afternoon DSP using the 3rd largest Stitched Rectangle Dies. I then cut the center out of the smaller panel of Daffodil Afternoon DSP using the 5th largest Stitched Rectangle Dies.

I adhered the largest panel of Daffodil Afternoon DSP to a Bumblebee card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the other 2 panels of Daffodil Afternoon DSP to Bumblebee mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the smallest layered panel to the medium layered panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I wrapped a piece of the Evening Evergreen 3/8″ Windowpane Check Ribbon around the layered panels and tied a bow.

I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. On a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Special Moments stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the Tasteful Labels Dies and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Special Moments stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink on a Very Vanilla panel. I adhered 2 strips of the Daffodil Afternoon DSP to either side of the panel. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to an Evening Evergreen mat and the to the inside of the Bumblebee card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Daffodil Afternoon DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Beauty of Tomorrow Inspired Thoughts for Fun Fold Friday Video Tutorial

Good Friday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? Does anyone have plans for the weekend? I’ll be at work all weekend.

Today’s card I made on my Facebook Live video on Wednesday. If you were able to join me or watched the replay, thank you. If you’d like to watch my video and stamp along, the measurements are below along with the links to my Facebook page and my YouTube channel. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Beauty of Tomorrow Bundle, the Stampin’ Up! Inspired Thoughts Cling Stamp Set along with the Blackberry Beauty Specialty Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I joined in with Creative Creases #18

I started by adhering a Blackberry Beauty DSP card front to a Cinnamon Cider mat and then to the front of a Rich Razzleberry card front.

I stamped the sentiment from the Inspired Thoughts stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink on a panel of Very Vanilla card stock. I cut the sentiment out using my Tasteful Labels Dies.

I adhered a length of the Gold 3/8″ Shimmer Ribbon to the card front then adhered the sentiment over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I adhered 2 panels of the Blackberry Beauty DSP to Early Espresso mats and then to the inside of the Rich Razzleberry card base. I scored & cut a panel of Rich Razzleberry cardstock as follows. First score the panel at 2 1/8″, 4 1/4″ & 6 3/8″. Make a little tick mark on the short edge 1 1/2″ up from the bottom. Cut from the tick mark to the upper left corner on a diagonal. The 2 1/8″ & 6 3/8″ score lines are valley folds and the 4 1/4″ score line is a mountain fold. I cut a panel of Early Espresso cardstock by making a tick mark on the short edge 1 1/4″ up from the bottom. Cut from the tick mark to the upper left corner on a diagonal. Cut the panel in 2″ intervals. I cut a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock by making a tick mark 1 1/8″ up from the bottom of the short edge. I cut from the tick mark to the upper left corner on a diagonal. Cut the panel in 1 7/8″ intervals. Emboss the 2 center Very Vanilla panels using the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder. Adhere the Very Vanilla panels to the Early Espresso mats. Adhered the layered panels to the Rich Razzleberry panel

Adhered the layered panel to the inside of the card base using Tear & Tape on the ends. Once it’s adhered it will look like the above picture.

On a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock stamp the larger floral image from the Stampin’ Up! Beauty of Tomorrow Cling Stamp Set in Rich Razzleberry Ink, stamping off once. Stamp the smaller floral image from the Beauty of Tomorrow stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink, stamping off once. Stamp the bird image from the Beauty of Tomorrow stamp set in Early Espresso Ink, stamping off once. Cut all the images out using the Beautiful Leaves Dies. Adhered the die cut images to the center embossed panels using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Stamp the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Friends Are Like Seashells Photopolymer Stamp Set in Early Espresso Ink and cut the sentiment out using the Tasteful Labels Dies. Adhered the sentiment to the top of the inner panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

To finish my card I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I stamped the floral image from the Beauty of Tomorrow stamp set in Rich Razzleberry Ink, stamping off once, on the envelope front. I stamped the bird image from the Beauty of Tomorrow stamp set in Early Espresso Ink, stamping off once, on the opposite side of the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the Blackberry Beauty DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Blessings of Home Sneak Peek for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? 33 years ago today on a cool rainy fall day, I married my best friend. It stopped raining just long enough for the ceremony and to get some outside pictures. You can actually see in some of our pictures the floods behind us (it had down poured the day and night before). Like many couples we’ve had our ups and downs, but mostly ups. Here’s to another 33 years together. He surprised me with a bike for our anniversary. He bought one for himself a while back and thought it would be fun bike riding together. I don’t know if he really knows how old I am and that I haven’t been on a bike since I was a teenager. Hopefully I can remember how to stay upright and not face down on the pavement. Does anyone have plans for the weekend? I’ll be at work all weekend between both jobs.

Today’s card I made on my Facebook Live video on Wednesday. If you were able to join me or watched the replay, thank you. If you’d like to watch my video and stamp along, the measurements are below along with the links to my Facebook page and my YouTube channel. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Blessings of Home Bundle along with the Heart & Home Designer Series Paper (both items will be available in the January-June 2022 Mini Catalog) for my card today.

I started by scoring and folding a Pale Papaya card base at 1 3/4″, 4 1/4″ & 6 3/4″. The 1 3/4″ score line is a valley fold, the 4 1/4′ score line is a mountain fold and the 6 3/4″ score line is a valley fold.

I adhered 5 panels of the Heart & Home DSP to 5 Basic Gray mats.

I adhered the 5 layered panels to the Pale Papaya card base.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the largest floral image from the Stampin’ Up! Blessings of Home Cling Stamp Set in Pale Papaya Ink, stamping off once. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Forever Blossoms Cling Stamp Set in Basic Gray Ink over the floral image. I adhered the Basic White panel to the inside Basic Gray mat.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the smaller floral image and the sentiment from the Blessings of Home stamp set in Basic Gray Ink. I colored the floral image in using my Just Jade, Pale Papaya and Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends Markers. I added some Clear Wink of Stella in the flower centers. I cut the floral image our using my Flowers of Home Dies and fussy cut the sentiment using my Paper Snips. I cut a few of the leaf dies from a panel of Garden Green cardstock using the Flowers of Home Dies. I cut a panel of Basic Gray cardstock using the Tasteful Labels Dies and then embossed the die cut using my Timber 3D Embossing Folder. I made a belly band for my card using a strip of Pale Papaya cardstock by wrapping it around the card and adhering it together. I wrapped a piece of Pale Papaya 3/8″ Open Weave Ribbon around the belly band and adhered it on the front. I adhered the leaf dies to the back of the floral die and adhered the floral die to the Basic Gray label die using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the layered artwork to the belly band. I added a Bumblebee Trinket by the flower and some Genial Gems on the card front.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the small floral image from the Blessing of Home stamp set in Basic Gray Ink and colored it the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of Heart & Home DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. If you do CASE this card, please feel free to post it in the comments of my Facebook page under the post. I’d love to see your take on the card. The list of measurements are below if you’d like to stamp along while watching the video. You can watch my video on my Facebook page Here.

Stampin’ Up! Daisy Garden

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week and on the downhill to the weekend. Is anyone starting to make plans?

It’s time for another inspiration challenge for The Card Concept. For the next 2 weeks we have a Garden Pleasures challenge. Here is my card that was inspired from the challenge photo.

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Daisy Garden Cling Stamp Set and the Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Garden Cling Stamp Set for Spotlight Technique card. I was inspired by the cheerful flowers and colors along with the beehive in the inspiration photo.

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concept and join us this week to play along with our challenge #155. How are you inspired by this photo?

I started by stamping the daisy image from the Daisy Garden stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I picked a spot in the center of the photo and cut it out using my Layering Circles Dies. I adhered the Basic White panel (without the center circle) to a Highland Heather card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I colored just the circle I cut our using my Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Pool Party and Soft Suede Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the circle to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals making sure to line up the flowers and leaves.

On a small panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Garden Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I cut the sentiment out using my Tasteful Labels Dies and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I adhered a length of the Gold Simply Elegant Trim to the card front using a Glue Dot and adhered one of the Bumblebee Trinkets to the end of it on a flower using a Glue Dot.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink in the center of a Basic White panel. I stamped the wildflower image from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the side of the panel and colored it in using my Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green and Soft Suede Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Basic White mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Highland Heather card base using Stampin’ Seal.

To complete my card I stamped the wildflower image from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set on a Basic White Medium Envelope front and envelope flap. I colored the images in using my Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green and Soft Suede Stampin’ Blends Markers.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Hand-Penned Petals Thank You

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? Did everyone have a nice Mother’s Day? I ended up not working on Sunday, which was kind of nice.

Today’s card I did very little stamping. I let the DSP to all the work for me. That’s one of the great things about Stampin’ Up! Designer Series Paper, it makes cards all on it’s own.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Hand-Penned Petals Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper. Here is my card for today.

My team leader, Jaimie, is giving us weekly challenges to do. There’s a color challenge and sketch challenge. We could use either of both. This was last weeks challenge and I used both.

I started by adhering a panel of the Hand-Penned DSP to a Highland Heather card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I stamped the sentiment from the Hand-Penned Petals stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Hand-Penned DSP. I adhered the DSP to 2 strips of Mint Macaron cardstock using Stampin’ Seal.

I cut a panel of Highland Heather cardstock using one of the Tasteful Labels Dies. I adhered the Highland Heather banner to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the DSP panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I tied a small bow using the Fresh Freesia 3/8″ Open Weave Ribbon and adhered it using a Glue Dot. I added a few Fresh Freesia 2021-2023 In-Color Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Ornate Thanks Photopolymer Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I adhered a strip of the Hand-Penned DSP to the bottom of the panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Mint Macaron mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Highland Heather card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Hand-Penned DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Brilliance Birthday

Good Tuesday morning my fellow stampers. How has everyone’s week started off? Hope you are all having a productive one.

Today’s card is another card we made at our team meeting on Sunday. This one was designed by our amazing team leader Amy Koenders, I just love her designs. Here is today’s card.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Brilliance Bundle along with the Stampin’ Up! Welcoming Window Photopolymer Stamp Set.

I started by adhering a Butterfly Bijou Designer Series Paper card front to a Basic Black mat using Stampin’ Seal. On a panel of In Good Taste Designer Series Paper I stamped the butterfly images from the Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Brilliance Cling Stamp in Sahara Sand Ink. I adhered the stamped DSP panel to a Basic Black mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the matted panel to the card front using Stampin’ Seal.

I stamped the largest butterfly image from the Butterfly Brilliance stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I cut the image out using my Brilliant Wings Dies. I colored the image in using my Mango Melody and So Saffron Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the butterfly to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Welcoming Window stamp set in Bermuda Bay Ink and cut it out using the Tasteful Labels Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added a few Blue Adhesive Backed Gems to the card front. I adhered the card front to a Bermuda Bay card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Gala Photopolymer Stamp Set in Bermuda Bay Ink in the center of a Basic White panel. I adhered another one of the butterflies from the Butterfly Brilliance stamp that I had cut and colored using my Bermuda Bay and So Saffron Stampin’ Blends Markers using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Basic Black mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Bermuda Bay card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped one of the butterfly images from the Butterfly Brilliance stamp set in Sahara Sand Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the Butterfly Bijou DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Itty Bitty Birthdays Brilliant Wings

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? I was able to attend our quarterly meeting in person. It was only my team leader and myself along with everyone else virtually, but I really enjoyed myself. It was great getting out for a bit with someone other than my co-workers.

Today’s card is one that we made at our team meeting and it was designed by one of my team members and upline Jaimie Babarczy. She always designs simple yet elegant cards. All the cards we made yesterday used the Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Brilliance Collection in one way or another. I’ll be showing my cards throughout the week. Here’s my card for today.

I’m playing along with the Inspire. Create. Challenge #086.

I started by embossing a Terracotta Tile card front using the Tasteful Textiles 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered a panel of True Love Designer Series Paper to a Basic White mat using Stampin’ Seal then adhered the matted panel to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the card front to a Terracotta Tile card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Using my Brilliant Wings Dies, I cut the largest butterfly out of a panel of Butterfly Bijou Designer Series Paper. I adhered the cut DSP to a Basic White mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I cut another one of the same detailed butterflies out of a panel of Basic Black cardstock. I adhered the butterfly over the Butterfly Bijou DSP using Multipurpose Liquid Glue just on the body of the butterfly. I adhered the matted panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a strip of Basic Black cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Itty Bitty Birthdays Cling Stamp Set in Versamark Ink. I immediately sprinkled it with my White Stampin’ Emboss Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I cut the sentiment using my Tasteful Labels Dies and adhered it to the card front using a Stampin’ Dimensionals and Glue Dot. I added a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Peaceful Moments Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink in the center of a Basic White panel. Remember that butterfly I cut out of the Butterfly Bijou DSP panel? I adhered it below the sentiments using Multipurpose Liquid Glue just on the body. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Basic Black mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Terracotta Tile card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Butterfly Bijou DSP to the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the True Love DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Don’t forget, Terracotta Tile is one of the 2019-2021 In-Colors that will be retiring May 3rd. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Friends Are Like Seashells for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning my stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? Are you ready for the weekend? I’m actually off this weekend from both my jobs. We do have our ‘In Person’ team meeting virtually this Sunday. I always look forward to the meeting even if we can’t meet up with everyone in person.

Today’s card I made on my Facebook Live video on Wednesday. If you were able to join me or watched the replay, thank you. If you’d like to watch my video and stamp along, the measurements are below along with the links to my Facebook page and my YouTube channel. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Friends Are Like Seashells Bundle along with the Sand & Sea Designer Series Paper.

I started by scoring and folded my 5 1/2″ X 11″ card base at 4 1/4″, 7 1/2″ & 10 3/4″. I placed the 1/4″ scored line to the bottom of my Paper Trimmer and the left side of the card base at the 5/8″ mark. I cut from the 4 1/4″ scored line (which is now at the 6 3/4″ mark on your trimmer) all the way down. I cut at the 4 1/4″ scored line down the 5/8″ and removed the strip. On the 1/4″ fold line, using my Paper Snips, I trimmed the small piece off the top so that the 1/4″ fold line measures 4 1/4″. I adhered a strip of Tear & Tape Adhesive on the 1/4″ fold line and adhered the 2 3/4″ X 4 1/4″ panel of Seaside Spray cardstock.

For the front of the card I embossed a panel of Pearlescent Specialty Paper using the Seabed 3D Embossing Folder and I adhered it using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Friends Are Like Seashells Photopolymer Stamp Set in Sahara Sand Ink and cut it out using the Tasteful Labels Dies. I adhered it to the top of the panel using Glue Dots. I stamped the shells and starfish on scraps of the Sand & Sea DSP and cut them out using my Seaside Shells Dies. I stamped the sand dollar on a panel of Basic White cardstock in Sahara Sand Ink and immediately sprinkled it with my Clear Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool.

I adhered panels of the Sea & Sand DSP to the inside of the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I embossed a panel of the Sand & Sea DSP using the Seabed 3D Embossing Folder for the inside front panel and adhered it using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I stamped the sentiment from the Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set in Sahara Sand Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped one of the scallop shells in Blushing Bride Ink on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to the inside panel using Stampin’ Seal.

On the other 2 Basic White panels I stamped the sentiments from the Seaside View stamp set in Sahara Sand Ink. On the larger panel I stamped the sand dollar and starfish images from the Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set in Sahara Sand Ink on the bottom. On the center panel I stamped the scallop shell from the Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set in Seaside Spray Ink on the bottom. I adhered the panels to the inside of the card base using Stampin’ Seal. I added a few Opal Rounds to the card front and the inside panels.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the sand dollar & star fish from the Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set in Sahara Sand Ink. I stamped the scalloped shells in Blushing Bride and Seaside Spray Ink. I adhered a panel of Sand & Sea DSP, which I embossed using the Seabed 3D Embossing Folder, to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. The list of measurements are below if you’d like to stamp along while watching the video. You can watch my video on my Facebook page Here.
