Just received the Seas The Day Bundle (#157858) so had to play with it. Here’s one of the cards I have made so far.
Firstly I stamped a piece of Basic White card (#159228) with the Gentle Waves background stamp (#157868) using Balmy Blue ink (#147105). I stamped the sea weed from the Seas The Day stamp set (#157849) with Mint Macaron ink (#147106) over the waves.
Next I adhered some Adhesive Sheet (#152334) to the back of the Balmy Blue card (#147007) before cutting this with a Seas Die (#157857). The fish, octopus & starfish are also from the Seas The Day stamp set. These were stamped with Misty Moonlight ink (#153118), Poppy Parade ink (#147050), So Saffron ink (#147109) and Pale Papaya ink (#155670). The co-ordinating Sea Dies cut these images.
“Best wishes” is from the Sale-a-bration Special Moments Stamp set (#158081). This set has 21 different sentiments so covers a range of occasions. This was stamped with Misty Moonlight ink, then cut with the die from Bouquet Of Love Hybrid Embossing Folder (#157641) which includes 9 dies.
I arranged the octopus between the seaweed, then added the Balmy Blue cut out to the card with the stamped waves. The sentiment, fish and starfish are all attached to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The clear embellishments from the Elegant Faceted Gems (#152464) were added to the card. I also used the Clear Wink Of Stella Brush (#141897) to add some extra sparkle to each of the stamped images.
TIP: Even though there are 2 different sizes of Stampin’ Dimensionals, sometimes you want a smaller piece. For the starfish I wanted small narrow pieces so I generally use the pieces around the outside and cut narrow strips which work perfectly.
