Friends are like Seashells

Thank you for stopping by today and checking out my blog. I finally got around to playing with the Seashell 3D Embossing folder and Pearlescent Specialty Paper from the Sand & Sea Suite. The embossing folder gives an absolutely beautiful 3D embossed seashell finish to it. I created this card using the folder with the Pearlescent paper, it is hard to capture the shine in this paper but it is gorgeous.  RECIPE * I used Whisper White Thick Cardstock as the base. * Silver Foil sheet, 14.4 x 10cm as the first layer. Before adhering to card, punch out a 2 1/4" circle for the front of card. * Using the Seashell 3D Embossing folder, emboss a piece of Pearlescent paper 13.9 x 9cm. This paper has a beautiful shine to you. * Stamp sentiment in Memento ink onto a piece of Whisper White and punch out using 2" circle punch. Adhere to Silver Foil circle using Tom bow glue. Place both onto seashell layer at the top right corner using dimensionals. Now adhere to the Silver Foil layer. * D...

Then using the Double Oval Punch, and the smaller oval punch out 4 or 5. Put aside * Punch out large oval shapes with Misty...

Card for a Friend

Thank you for visiting my blog today. I have this wonderful friendship card that I created a while ago and just got out to send to a lovely friend who lives afar. I used the Basket of Blooms and the new 2020/2022 In Colours which are my all time favourite colours from Stampin' Up! I hope you follow along with the instructions and create your own card. Happy Crafting. Card Recipe I used Misty Moonlight Cardstock for the card base and a piece of corresponding Designer Series Paper, 9 x 13.5cm put on card base at a angle. Then on a piece of Whisper White Cardstock, 7.7 x 12.1 cm stamp in Memento the pot and then stamp one onto a piece of sticky paper and cut out to create a mask.
