Sunset Coast dies

Welcome everyone,

When I have products out I often make a few variations of cards, so today I am using the Sunset Coast dies (#1667780) and the Scenic Coast Specialty Designer Series Paper (167773) again.

I cut the DSP with the Perennial Postage dies (#162607). The smaller piece of DSP is cut from the larger piece and this is covered when attaching the matted DSP. The Blueberry Bushel card front (#146991) was dry embossed with the Soft Waves embossing folder and I attached the larger piece of DSP to this, and matted the smaller piece of DSP also with Blueberry Bushel card. The smaller matted piece was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The lighthouse was cut with a Sunset Coast die using Silver Foil (#163387). I then used a Spotlight On Nature die (#163580) to cut the circle. This was then attached to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108) and Mini Glue Dots (#103683).

No stamping on this card (except inside) as I chose not to add a sentiment at this stage.

Sunset Coast Dies

Hello & welcome again,

The lighthouse is cut with the Scenic Coast Dies (#167780) on Basic White card (#166781).

This die cut was attached to the Scenic Coast Specialty Designer Series Paper (#167773), then matted with Azure Afternoon card (#161728).

I dry embossed the Basic White card front with the (retired) Soft Waves embossing folder and this was also matted with Azure Afternoon card. This was attached to the Basic White base card.

The sentiment is from the Cutest Crew stamp set (#167146) and stamped with Azure Afternoon ink (#161663). The sentiment and banner under the sentiment were cut with Stylish Shapes dies (#159183).

The sentiment and matted lighthouse were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

Sunset Coast Dies

Hi again my friends,

I am making a variation from yesterday’s card using the circular “rays” die from the Sunset Coast dies (#167780).

The “rays” were cut from Blueberry Bushel card (#146991) backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) and the lighthouse was cut from Silver Foil (#163387). For the lighthouse I also used a die from the Spotlight On Nature dies (#163580) to cut the circle but then cut away the top part of the circle, leaving just the “rocks” area and lighthouse.

These die cuts were attached to the Splash Of Sparkles Specialty Designer Series Paper (#167200). The lighthouse was attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). The card front was matted with Blueberry Bushel card and attached to the Basic White base card (#166781).

“Happy Birthday” from the Cutest Crew stamp set (#167146) was stamped with Blueberry Bushel ink (#147138) and cut with a Spotlight On Natures die.

The net, shells & starfish are also cut with dies from the Sunset Coast dies. The net was cut from Crumb Cake card (#121685) backed with Adhesive Sheet. I cut this in half and attached it to the card. The sentiment was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The silver foil shells & starfish were attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Delicate Whispers Bundle

Hi again friends,

These floral images are from the Delicate Whispers stamp set (#167500).

The images were stamped with Pretty Peacock ink (#150083) onto Basic White card (#166781). These were coloured with Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends (#154883) and Pool Party Stampin’ Blends (#154894), then cut with the Delicate Whispers dies (#167505).

The 2 pieces of Natures Walk Designer Series Paper (#166912) were attached to the Basic White base card.

I used a die from the Sunset Coast dies (#167780) to cut the Daffodil Delight card (#121680) for the circle with the “rays”. This card was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) making it easy to attach to the card. The stamped images were attached to the card with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

“With Love” from the Extraordinary Flora stamp set (#165243) was stamped with Pretty Peacock ink, then punched with the Three Banner Punch (#167050). This was also attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Glimmer was added to the flowers & leaves using the Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897). I coloured the Antique Pearls (#164679) with Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends before attaching them to the card.

Scenic Coast Specialty Designer Series Paper

Hello everyone,

The stunning Scenic Coast 6”x6” Specialty Designer Series Paper (#167773) features vivid colours with Iridescent Pearl on the coastal sunset designs. I made a larger card - 15x15cm - as I didn't want to cut off too much of the beautiful DSP.

The DSP was attached to the Basic White base card (#166781). I cut a circle from the Spotlight On Nature Dies (#163580) from Balmy Blue card (#147007). I then cut the lighthouse scene using a Sunset Coast die (#167780). This was glued to the DSP with Multipurpose Liquid Glue (#110755).

“Best Wishes” was cut with the Words & Wishes dies (#167894). I cut these with Crushed Curry card (#131288) and Blueberry Bushel card (#146991). Both cards were backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334). I attached the Crushed Curry words then offset slightly with the Blueberry Bushel words to create a “shadow” effect.

The shells & starfish were cut with another die from the Sunset Coast dies and I used Crumb Cake card (#121685). These were also glued to the card. Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) was added to the lighthouse, shells & starfish.
