Hello fellow stampers, crafters, and friends! Today's blog post is Make and Mail #4 which features the Sand and Sea Suite. I love this suite and waited a long time to get all the parts (as it was on backorder). But it is SO WORTH the wait! If you don't have this suite, I suggest you go get it now, as it is only available until the end of June. I don't see how it can disappoint!
Let's get started with the card.
How To:
Cut and fold your papers according to the dimensions below. Adhere the Sahara sand paper to the card base, straight on. Adhere the Flirty Flamingo piece at a slight angle. Next, stamp all your images. I stamped the sand dollar in Sahara sand, on Sahara sand card stock. I stamped the small sea shell in Soft Seafoam, on Soft Seafoam card stock. I did a bit of blending of So Saffron onto very vanilla then stamped the starfish onto this in So Saffron. Stamp whatever image(s) you want onto the inside card panel. I used the sand dollar in Sahara sand. Last, I stamped my sentiment (You are unique and completely amazing), in Sahara sand on Sahara sand card stock.
Next, I die cut all the pieces out using the coordinating dies, except the sentiment, which I used a label die from the Tasteful Labels die set. Now that all my pieces are stamped and cut, you can adhere them down. I put dimensionals onto each piece, with mini ones on the bottom of the small shell as that piece if so small. I placed the sand dollar in the lower right corner first, then the starfish overlapping a bit, then the small shell. I adhered the sentiment in the center towards the top, and then added some opal rounds to the card and some wink of stella to the three shells. Adhere the inside panel now, and you are done!
