These stamped images and the die cut leaves were cut with the Forever Flourishing dies. I used the Soft Succulent from Fine Shimmer Paper Pack (#160428) for the die cut leaves.

With Adhesive Sheet (#152334) on the back of a piece of Basic White card I used a die from the Organic Beauty dies (#158983) to cut the “trellis”. This was attached to the By The Bay Specialty Designer Series Paper (#160434), then this was attached to the Basic White base card.

I attached the leaves & berries with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). “Best Wishes” is from the Cottage Rose stamp set (#159040), stamped with Merry Merlot ink and cut with a Queen Bee die (#160484).

Seaside Bay

Hello crafty friends,

The By The Bay Suite Collection (#160450) is another retiring product, which has been used on this card.

Strips of the By The Bay 6”x6” Specialty Designer Series Paper (#160434) were attached to the Basic White card front (#159228). I daubered the edges with Night Of Navy ink (#147110) and attached the card front to the Basic White base card.

The 2 squares are cut with the Stylish Shapes Dies (#159183). The Gold square is Gold Foil (#132622) and the other square is from the By The Bay DSP.

The bird from the Seaside Bay stamp set (#160436) was stamped with Night Of Navy ink and cut with a Seaside Bay die (#160444). This was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

“Just for You” is from the Celebrating You stamp set (#158028) and I used Night Of Navy ink. Another Stylish Shapes Die was used to cut the sentiment. Stampin’ Dimensionals were also used to attach this to the card.

I used the Pebbles Enamel Shapes which are already retired.

The retiring products on this card are the Seaside Bay stamp set & dies and By the Bay DSP.

By The Bay

Hello stamping friends,

This is a very shimmery card using the Fine Shimmer Paper Pack (#160428) and the By The Bay Specialty Designer Series Paper (#160434).

I cut the By The Bay Specialty Designer Series Paper with one of the dies from the Desert Details Dies (#160531). The green paper from the Fine Shimmer 

12”x12” Paper Pack was cut with another of the dies. This was then attached to the Gold from the Fine Shimmer Paper then attached to the Basic White base card (#159228).

The small shells from the Seaside Bay stamp set (#160436) were stamped with Crumb Cake ink (#147116) and cut with a die from the Seaside Bay Dies (#160444). These were attached to the sides of the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

The “seaweed” and shells were also cut with Seaside Bay dies. I used the Distressed Gold 12”x12” Specialty Paper (#159237) for these shells, and the shells & seaweed were attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

“Best Wishes” is from the Art Gallery stamp set (#158201) and stamped with Soft Succulent ink (#155778). I cut this with a Sending Die (#159271). This die is longer than I wanted so I cut it close to the “B”, then re-positioned the die to cut off the excess on the other end. The sentiment was attached to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Seaside Bay Bundle

Hi friends,

The Seaside Bay Bundle (#160445) and the By The Bay 6”x6” Specialty Designer Series Paper (#160434) have been used on this card. Some of the dies from the Seaside Bay dies (#160444) also co-ordinate with some of the images on the DSP which is always a bonus.

I dry embossed the Balmy Blue card (#147007) with the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder (#154317). Then I attached the By The Bay DSP on the left side. Another piece of this DSP was matted with Night Of Navy card (#106577) and attached to the card front. The base card is Basic White (#159228).

The birds are from the Seaside Bay stamp set (#160436). The larger bird was stamped with Night Of Navy ink (#147110). The small birds were stamped with Petal Pink ink (#147108), Balmy Blue ink (#147105) and Crumb Cake (#147116). The birds, clam shell, shells and seaweed were all cut with the Seaside Bay dies. I used the Fine Shimmer Paper (#160428) for the seaweed, Gold Foil (#132622) for the clam shell and Crumb Cake card (#121685) for the shells. I used the Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) on the Crumb Cake shells.

I also used Clear Wink Of Stella on the large bird. There was some “bleeding” of the ink which gave a lighter colour blue on the bird which is just what I wanted.

The sentiment from Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) was stamped with Night Of Navy ink and cut with a die from the Cracker & Treat Box Dies (#159182).

The birds, sentiment and small shell were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). Mini Glue Dots (#103683) were used for the clam shell and I had Adhesive Sheet (#152334) on the back of the Fine Shimmer Paper.

Thanks to everyone who have enquired how my husband’s operation went last week. It went well and he is now home with lots of rehab to continue.

By The Bay Specialty Designer Series Paper

Hi & welcome,

There is such a variety of designs in the By The Bay 6”x6” Specialty Designer Series Paper (#160434) and I chose this more subtle one for this card.

The DSP was matted with Pool Party card (#124391) then attached to the Basic White base card (#159228). The birds are from the Seaside Bay stamp set (#160436). I stamped the birds with Crumb Cake ink (#147116), Pool Party ink (#147107) and Petal Pink (#147108). These were cut with the Seaside Bay dies (#160444) and attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The seaweed and clam shell were also cut with the Seaside Bay dies. I used the Soft Succulent and Gold from the Fine Shimmer 12”x12”Paper Pack (#160428) for the seaweed and I used the Gold Foil (#132622) for the clam shell. I had Adhesive Sheet (#152334) on the back of the Fine Shimmer. The clam shell was attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683).

“Happy Birthday” from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) was stamped with Pool Party ink, cut with a die from the Cracker & Treat Box dies (#159182) and attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

Hello again my friends,

If you love the beach you will love the By The Bay suite (#160450). Included in the suite is the Seaside Bay Bundle (#160445), Balmy Blue & White variegated Ribbon (#160448), Flat Adhesive-Backed Pearls (#160448) and By The Bay Specialty Designer Series Paper (#160434). I have used the bundle and DSP for this card.

The birds from the Seaside Bay stamp set (#160436) were stamped with Night Of Navy ink (#147110). I used Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blend (#154882) to add some extra colour to the bird, then I used the Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897). This blended the Night Of Navy ink and the Crumb Cake but I liked the results.

The shells & sand were stamped with Crumb Cake ink (#147116) onto the By The Bay DSP. The sentiment, also from the same stamp set was stamped with Night Of Navy ink and cut with a Something Fancy Die (#160424).

The birds and the shells from the Crumb Cake card (#121685) were cut with the Seaside Bay Dies (#160444). The birds and sentiment were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). The shells were attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683). I also added the Clear Wink Of Stella to the die cut shells and the stamped shells.

The DSP was matted with Night Of Navy card (#106577) then attached to the Basic White base card (#159228).
