Seaside Thinking of You
Today’s card uses several different stamp sets to create the scenery. I embossed a piece of Balmy Blue card using the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder before attaching it to scored and folded Thick Basic White card. I stamped the sand image from the Oceanfront stamp set across the bottom of Basic White card using Crumb Cake ink. I stamped the sea image from the same stamp set above the sand using Balmy Blue ink. I stamped the sky image from the Oceanfront stamp set above the sea using Balmy Blue ink which I stamped onto scrap paper first. I stamped the bird image from the Waves of Inspiration stamp set three times onto the sky using Early Espresso ink.
I stamped the pelican image onto Basic White card using Early Espresso ink. I used my Stamparatus to get a reverse image and cut it out by hand. I stamped the grass image from the Oceanfront stamp set three times onto Basic White card using Mossy Meadow ink. I cut out two full grass images and one partial grass image by hand. I layered the grass and pelican images onto the lower left hand corner of the stamped Basic White card. I stamped the “double rock” image from the Oceanfront stamp set onto Basic White card using Crumb Cake ink and cut it out by hand. I attached the image over the ends of the grass images using dimensionals. The Basic White panel is attached to the card front using dimensionals. I stamped the greeting from the Go To Greetings stamp set onto Basic White card using Balmy Blue ink.
I cut out the image using one of the Something Fancy Dies. I attached the greeting to the card front using dimensionals where necessary. To decorate the inside of the card I stamped the sand image from the Oceanfront stamp set onto the lower left hand corner of Basic White card using Crumb Cake ink. I stamped two different sets of grass from the Oceanfront stamp set onto the sand using Mossy Meadow ink. I stamped the “double rock” image onto scrap Basic White card using Crumb Cake ink. I cut out the image and attached it over the ends of the grass images.
I really love how this card turned out. I also love that you can combine the Oceanfront stamp set with other stamp sets to create different kinds of scenery. The really good part is everything I used, except the Stamparatus, is carrying over to the new Annual Catalogue.
Bye for now,
