For today’s beach scene, I began with the background, created with Sand & Sea Designer Paper. The sand is 5 1/4″ X 4″, glued in the left corner of a Sahara Sand card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.The ocean is 4″ by 2 3/4 “, glued to Basic White Cardstock that is 1/8” larger, and glued in the corner on top of the sand.
Next, I used the largest Seaside Seashell Die, the one that can cover an entire card front, to cut Basic White Cardstock. Then, I snipped away one corner section to fit my design.
This is a unique bundle, because there is an embossing folder to use with the largest die, which gives detail to the shells and seaweed. It’s amazing! Check it out in my Product List below.
The Friends Are Like Seashells Stamp Set has a number of shells, and I used the one you see with the sentiment, and a sand dollar. The one with the sentiment was stamped in Sahara Sand Ink on Basic White Cardstock, fussy cut, and glued on top of its twin shell from the snipped die-cut. Prior to gluing, I stamped the sentiment, “love you to the beach and back,” in Early Espresso Ink.
The sand dollar was also stamped in Early Espresso Ink, cut with its die, and colored with a Light Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blend. I attached the seashells with Dimensionals, and the seaweed was left free.
I was inspired by Fusion’s sketch and theme.
