I previously said I am really loving the Sand & Sea Suite of products from the new January – June Mini catalog. I want to spend the next few days really highlighting what the products in the suite can make. Today I am focusing on the beautiful Seashells 3D Embossing Folder.
Here is what I created with it…
I wanted to mount my card front which was embossed
onto a card base that was created from Basic White cardstock. So, the card base is Basic White cardstock
that is cut 5 ½ x 8 ½”, scored at 4 ¼”. I
then cut a piece of the Seaside Spray cardstock to 4 ¼ x 5 ½” and embossed it
using the Seashells 3D Embossing folder.
Once it was embossed, I poured a little of the Frost White Shimmer Paint
onto my Silicone Craft Sheet and picked it up using one of the new Blender
Brushes. I was careful to not overload
the brush. I just brushed the areas I
wanted to highlight, softer on the seaweed and a little heavier on the shells. I love the affect; too bad you can’t see the
pearlescent shine the paint leaves on the paper.
I wrapped some of the Seaside Spray ¼” Metallic Ribbon
around the top of this layer and tied it in a little square knot. For my sentiment I cut a piece of Basic White
cardstock to 1 x 3 ½” and dove tailed the two ends with the Banner Triple
Punch. I stamped the sentiment from the
Friends are Like Seashells stamp set from the suite using Seaside Spray ink and
added it over my ribbon using Dimensionals.
For my final touch I added a number of the Pearls Basic Jewels.
While this is a very simple and basic card it really
is great looking. I hope you enjoy this
card I certainly enjoyed making it. As
always you can find the supplies to create this card and much more on my
