Coastal Christmas "Shell"abration
>> Wednesday, November 4, 2020
One day, I dream of living at the beach or at least on water. I do have a few friends and family who are lucky enough to live at the beach or very close to it and my cards today would work perfectly for them.
My first card is full of fussy cutting fun (I enjoy it). I stamped, water-colored, cut, and sponged:
* 8 of the coral in the 3-1 Ocean Floor Designs
*2 of the Christmas Light String
*1 of the new "Shell"ebrate the Season Greeting
Then I just started layering the coral, shells and lights together. I kept all the colors soft other than the lights.
Then I made another card using the Potted Berry Tree, the "Shell"ebrate the Season Greeting and some of the shells fussy cut from the Seashell Christmas Tree.
I water-colored the tree and the shells.
It is time to start those Christmas cards if you haven't already...Christmas is just around the corner. I have a couple of weekends planned soon to knock my cards out, but I know I will still be making them up to the last minute like I always do!
Hope your week is going well.
Hugz,
Nancy

I just knew you would create a wreath to go with the new greeting! And you didn’t disappoint! Nancy, your wreath is beautiful! I love it! It is perfect with this new greeting! Those pastel colors work beautifully. The little potted berry tree looks adorable with the sand dollar on top. Super cute cards today!
Wow, your wreath is amazing! You are the queen of wreaths to be sure!! All the cutting!!!! It looks beautiful though, well worth the effort at least for us spectators! It is such an eye pleaser!
Your second card is pretty too! Love them both!
That first card is a masterpiece! Wow! I love the way you added the lights to it too! I mean, the coral as a base is just next level! The second card is beautiful too! Love the starfish at the top and the subtle colors on both of these cards are beautiful :)
These are wonderful, Nancy! Your shell wreath is incredible & the colors are super. Love the clean layout on your berry tree card & the vertical greeting is perfect.
So, so pretty Nancy! I bow once again to our Wreath Queen :) What an impressive wreath with all those fussy cut shells and adding the Christmas lights was a stroke of genius! Love your tree card too - that starfish tree topper is over the top!!
Fantastic shell wreath and great little tree with the starfish for the tree topper Nancy. Both cards are gorgeous!
