Friends Are Like Seashells

Hello friends,

I participated in a small swap as part of the virtual workshop I "attended" at the end of January.  For our swap, each participant made 10 of the same card.  (I make 11 so I can keep one for myself). We sent our  cards into the swap coordinator and in return got back 10 cards made by other swap participants!  This week I'll share the swap card I submitted as well as those I received.


My card features elements of the Sand & Sea Suite.  To make my card I started with a card base of Seaside Spray.  Next I added a panel, also Seaside Spray, and embossed with the Seashells 3D Embossing Folder.  To a piece of Sahara Sand cardstock, I added 4 - 1 inch strips of Sand & Sea Designer Series paper.  After adding Linen Thread wrapped around the panel and tied in a bow, I attached the panel with Dimensionals.  The greeting, from the Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set,  is stamped in Seaside Spray.  I added a sand dollar from the same stamp set stamped in Sahara Sand and stamped off once as a background.  The greeting panel was die cut with a die from the Tasteful Labels Dies.

Friends Are Like Seashells

Hello friends,

Last week I did a Facebook Live to demonstrate some of my favorite features from the Sand & Sea Suite from the Spring Mini.  If you missed that Live, you can see it here.  I shared this card during that presentation.




My card base is Very Vanilla Thick Cardstock with a piece of patterned paper from the Sand & Sea Designer Series paper pack.  Next, I embossed a piece of Seaside Spray cardstock using the Seashells 3D embossing folder.  Then I cut out the embossed image with the Seaside Shells Dies.  I used a dauber to apply Frost White Shimmer Paint over the entire surface.  The sentiment is stamped in Seaside Spray on Very Vanilla cardstock and punched out with the Timeless Label Punch.
