Summer begins next week, and it definitely feels like summer, here in San Diego. The Sea Scape Stamp Set and Sea Life Dies are perfect for summertime cards.
Birthday Fishes
I began with a Pool Party card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. Then, I cut the Pattern Party Designer Paper a sliver (1/16″) smaller than the card base, so it would fill the card front without hanging over the edge.
Next I cut Basic White Cardstock 5″ X 3 3/4″, and used Stitched With Whimsy Dies to do some embossing. I centered the larger square first, and then added the smaller squares to the sides. This die set is unusual, because the dies don’t cut completely through the paper.
After embossing, I stamped squares inside the stitched lines, using the Watercolor Shapes Stamp Set and Pool Party Ink. It’s fun how they fit together perfectly, isn’t it? Be sure to check them out in my Product List below.
Next, I stamped some bubbles, using a Sea Scape stamp and Pool Party Ink. Then, I used Sea Life Dies to cut the two fish and coral from Rainbow Glimmer Paper, and attached them with Dimensionals.
I love the sentiment, “Hoping all your birthday fishes come true,” which is from the Whale Done Stamp Set. I stamped it in Black Stazon Ink, used a Beautiful Trees Die for cutting, and attached it with Dimensionals.
The last step was adding three sequins for more underwater sparkle.
I was inspired by TGIF.
