Sea Life Dies

Hello,

The Layering Diorama Dies (#155565) are great for creating layers. There are 7 dies in this set. I have used 2 dies on this card.

I have attached a piece of Sand & Sea Designer Series Paper (#154288) to the Basic White base card (#159228). I cut the next layer - Basic White with a Layering Diorama Die, then I embossed this with the Painted Textures Embossing Folder (#154317). Another piece of Sand & Sea Designer Series Paper was cut with another of the dies. These 2 die cut pieces were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). 

The seahorse and seaweed were cut with the Sea Life Dies (#155684). The Rose Gold from the Gold & Rose Gold Metallic Specialty Paper (#156844) was used for the seahorse and the Soft Succulent from the 2021-2023 In Color Shimmer Vellum (#155616) was used for the seaweed. The seaweed was attached to the card with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals were used on the seahorse.

The sentiment is from the Encircled In Friendship stamp set (#155408) and stamped with Flirty Flamingo ink (#147052), then cut with the circles from the Picture This Dies (#155559). I added the Clear embellishments from the Silver & Clear Epoxy Essentials (#155567) to the card.

Basic Borders

Hello,

For today’s cards I made 4 the same but used different dies from the Basic Borders Dies (#155558).

Using a Blending Brush (#153611) and Seaside Spray ink (now retired) I coloured the Basic White card front (#159228). Then I stamped the images from the Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set (#154368) with VersaMark (#102283) and heat embossed with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155555), then set with the Heat Tool (#129056). I added some extra colour on 2 of the cards over the stamped images using Balmy Blue ink (#147007). I then cut the Gold Foil Sheet (#132622) and the Sand & Sea Designer Series Paper (#154288) with the Basic Border Dies. These were attached to the card front. I added the (retired) Seaside Spray Metallic ribbon to one of the cards.

The “celebrate” is from the Many Mates stamp set (retired), “Happy Birthday to my Beautiful Friend” is in the Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set (#154368), “Thinking Of You” is in the Quiet Meadow stamp set (#155082) and “Happy Birthday” is from the Happy Thoughts stamp set (#154507). These were all Gold Embossed and cut with Stitched Rectangles Dies (#151820) and Stitched So Sweetly dies (#151690). Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) were used to attach the sentiments to the card.

Sailing Home

Hello & welcome again,

Another masculine card today, using the Sailing Home stamp set (#149457).

The boats, lighthouse and anchor are all images from the Sailing Home stamp set, using Misty Moonlight ink (#153118), Real Red ink (#147084) and Smoky Slate ink (#147113). The dies to cut these, as well as the wheel are from the co-ordinating Smooth Sailing dies (#149576). I used the Brass Foil Sheet (#153057) for the wheel. 

The base card is Basic White (#159228). The Designer Series Paper is from the Sand & Sea DSP (#154288) and this was matted onto the Real Red card (#106578).

“Celebrate” is from the Many Mates stamp set (#152633) and stamped with Real Red ink. I cut this and the Real Red card underneath with the Stitched Nested Labels dies (#149638). The sentiment and the lighthouse were attached to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). I had Adhesive Sheet (#152334) on the back of the wheel for ease of attaching. I find the adhesive sheets are great when you have more detailed die cuts.

Have an amazing day!!

Sailing Home stamp set

Hello again,

It’s nice to revisit some of the products from the Annual catalogue which we can sometimes forget when another catalogue arrives, so I have chosen the Sailing Home stamp set (#149457) which makes a great masculine card.

I have dry embossed the Pacific Point card (#116202) using the Seabed 3D Embossing Folder (#152700), then attached this to the Basic White base card (#159228). Happy Birthday is from the Many Mates stamp set (#152633) and stamped with Pacific Point ink (#147098) on Basic White card. This and the Poppy Parade card (#121694) were cut with the Hippo & Friends Dies (#153585).

The lighthouse is from the Sailing Home stamp set and also stamped with Pacific Point ink. The shells are fussy cut from the Sand & Sea Designer Series Paper (#154288). Even though these shells are smaller than the shells in the Seashells 3D Embossing Folder (#154309), I was very pleased how well it embossed these shells. I find they just look so much better with the embossing then when flat.

The lighthouse and the red & blue shells were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and as usual couldn’t resist using the Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) to add that touch of glimmer to the shells & lighthouse. Pity it doesn’t show in the photo but looks great in reality.

Have a great weekend.

Seabed 3D Embossing Folder with Sand & Sea DSP

Hello and welcome friends,

I love the beautiful sheen on the Pearlescent Specialty Paper (#154291) and looks great when embossed with the Seabed 3D Embossing Folder (#152700).

This was then attached to the Very Vanilla base card (#106550) and then a piece of the Sand & Sea Designer Series Paper (#154288) was attached.

The sentiment, shell and star fish are from the Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set (#154368) and stamped onto Very Vanilla card. The sentiment and shell were stamped with Flirty Flamingo ink (#147052) and the starfish with So Saffron ink (#147109). The shell and starfish were cut with the Seaside Seashells Dies (#156095).

The sentiment and Flirty Flamingo card (#141421) under the sentiment were cut with Hippo & Friends Dies (#153585). I attached the Gold Trim from the Forever Greenery Trim Combo Pack (#152475), then attached the sentiment with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The shell and starfish were also attached with Dimensionals.

I hope you are having a great day!!

Hey Girlfriend

Hello friends,

The girls from the Hey Girlfriend stamp set (#154516) are so cute and I have used one of them on this card.

I stamped the girl and cute little cat with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) onto Basic White card (#159228). These were then coloured with the Stampin’ Blends with the following colours - Flirty Flamingo (#154884), Ivory & Bronze (#154922), Crumb Cake (#154882), Seaside Spray (#154901) and Smokey Slate (#154904). I also used the Clear Wink Of Stella Glitter Brush (#141897) on the dress, headband, lips and shoes. I used the Stitched Rectangles Dies (#151820) to cut this White card. This was attached to the Flirty Flamingo card (#141421) which I cut with the Ornate Layers Dies (#152726). Stampin’ Dimensionals (104430) were used to attach the Flirty Flamingo card to the DSP.

I cut the triangles using the Stitched Triangles Dies (#152710) and attached these to the corners of the Sand & Sea Designer Series Paper (#154288) then attached this to the Basic White base card.

“Happy Birthday” is from the Itty Bitty Greetings Stamp Set (#151331) and stamped with Flirty Flamingo ink (#147052). This was punched with the Classic Label punch (#141491). The Woven Threads Sequin Assortment embellishments (#149498) were glued to the card using the Fine-Tip Glue Pen (#138309).

Have a great day!!
