KEY HOLE SAND DOLLAR CARD

Hello to each of you. I’m so pleased that you have taken the time to pop by.

Today I want to share a second card using the SAND & SEA SUITE.

When I saw the stamps and DSP, I went into research mode to discover the names of the shells featured. The ‘shell’ I’ve featured for today’s project is a key hole sand dollar.

I chose this piece of SAND & SEA DESIGNER SERIES PAPER design because I like the motled light pink and white toned background with the overlapping shells in two toned Flirty Flamingo and White.

I used my STAMPARATUS to stamp the shell onto Flirty Flamingo card stock. Two of them were stamped using Flirty Flamingo and Basic Gray. I cleaned the stamp and then used Versamark and Clear Stampin’ Embossing Powder so that I could heat it and create a shiny finish. The third one used Versamark and White Stampin’ Embossing Powder. The image was also stamped on the inside of the card and on the envelope.

The greeting is from the FRIENDS ARE LIKE SEASHELLS STAMP SET. I used the POTTED SUCCULENTS DIES to cut the sentiment.

For the final touches of bling, I brushed some CLEAR WINK OF STELLA across the shells and added some ELEGANTED FACETED GEMS.

This is a beautiful birthday card and I look forward to sending it to a friend later in the year. #makeacardsendacard

SHE SELLS SEASHELLS BY THE SEASHORE

Hello to each of you who I hope I collected as my stamping friends – thanks for popping by again.

When I first saw the SAND & SEA SUITE, my mind went straight to a tongue twister from my childhood.

This suite is amazing.

SAND & SEA SUITE COLLECTION (ENGLISH)

I used one of the dies from the SEASIDE SEASHELLS DIES and one of the sheets of SAND & SEA DSP to cut the larger multiple shells shape. Then, I used the SEASHELLS 3D EMBOSSING FOLDER to emboss the paper.

The paper I chose gave the shells a lovely ombre transition from Seaside Spray to Flirty Flamingo, with some splashes of Sahara Sand.

When the shells are popped up, using Stampin’ Dimensionals, onto a panel of PEARLESCENT SPECIALTY PAPER they look stunning.

I stamped the sentiment, from the FRIENDS ARE LIKE SEASHELLS STAMP SET, in Seaside Spray and cut it using one of the dies from the STITCHED SO SWEETLY DIES.

I thought about adding some CLEAR WINK OF STELLA but decided not to. Instead, I added some of the OPAL ROUNDS to achieve extra shimmer.

I have a friend who has moved to Brisbane for a new job and I look forward to sending this card to her.

Who would you send this card to?

Thanks, again, for popping by … happy stamping.
