Sea of Textures

Here's a cute shaker card I made but never shared:


I love anything "sea"-related, and this Sea of Textures set has it all - sea shells, seaweed, coral, an octapus, fishnet and textures!  How can you go wrong?

It was easy to create a "bottom of the sea" card when you have this great set!


Soft Suede was the base of this card; I took a slightly smaller piece (4" x 5-1/4") and ran it through the Seaside embossing folder and the Big Shot for a wavy pattern.  I also cut a hole in the center using the Layering Circles Framelits dies.


I cut a larger circle from Pool Party cardstock and stamped the sea grass using Tranquil Tide ink.  Then I cut out the seaweed using the Under the Sea framelits and adhered it.  Purchasing the stamps and the framelits in the bundle saves you 10% - woohoo!

And look at these fish:


Aren't they adorable?  It's one of the framelits, which I cut from Copper Foil Sheets, and individually adhered each little fish with some Multipurpose Glue.


A piece of Window Sheet was attached to the back of my top layer, under the circle.  Using Adhesive Foam Strips, I encircled the opening; I poured some Tranquil Textures Sprinkles on the Pool Party layer and then adhered my top.  

The octopus was stamped (Blushing Bride) and cut with the framelits, as was the coral (Tranquil Tide).  Hard to see, but there's a layer of fishnet under it all, also cut with the framelits.  


A Dazzling Diamonds starfish and sand dollar finish my card.

Hand Delivered Anniversary

I love this stamp set!  Hand Delivered is just so cute for so many occasions.  Take this card:


I needed an anniversary card for my sister and brother-in-law.  Using the wedding cake was perfect for this card.  Isn't this cute?

I stamped the bottom half of the woman using Tuxedo Black ink on Whisper White cardstock.  I colored her legs and shoes with Stampin' Blends, and stamped the stripes in the skirt with Lovely Lipstick.

Then I stamped the hands, carrying the cake, and colored the image with the Blends.  This was then adhered to a panel of Lovely Lipstick.


The card base is Whisper White Thick cardstock, with a layer of Lovely Lipstick and then a panel of the Garden Impressions Designer Series Paper.  I wrapped a length of now-retired ribbon around the card and tied it in a bow.  Then the stamped panel was adhered with Dimensionals.


A sentiment from Beautiful Bouquet was stamped with Lovely Lipstick ink; the end of the Whisper White strip was flagged using the Triple Banner Punch, and I used a Glimmer Enamel Dot for a little glitz.


Hand Delivered is a Host set; place an order of $150 (before shipping/tax) and you can choose this set to join your collection of most-favorite stamps!  It's one of mine, and I'm sure it will quickly become one of yours.




Did you earn Bonus Days coupons during the month of August?  Well now is the time to spend them.  If you have an email from Stampin' UP! telling you that you earned Bonus Days coupons, I'd be happy to assist you in redeeming them.  Don't miss out--Bonus Days can only be redeemed in September!
