Beach Birthday
>> Tuesday, June 23, 2015
Hi Everyone,
I could hardly wait to show off my beach themed birthday card on the blog today! I've had so much fun using these newly released stamps, that stamping has felt like a vacation! I swear I could hear the roar of the ocean waves when I was making this card :)
I used the 4 in 1 Seashells to make my background. I stamped them in Versamark on kraft card stock and then embossed them using clear embossing powder and my heat gun. Next, I used a scallop punch and various shades of blue card stock to give the effect of waves, and finally adding a strip of double sided tape that was coated in sandy colored glittery flock.
I stamped the Beach Birthday Greeting in Navy ink and die cut it using a rectangle die, and I then layered it onto a glittery blue mat.
Finally I stamped, colored and fussy cut four of the shells for embellishment, adding them with some dimensional foam tape.
Don't forget to join our weekly challenge here at the blog!
Thanks for visiting!

This is a terrific card, Karin! Love the shells all over the bg and the rows of blue scallops are so eye catching.
