Time at the Seaside

Today’s card is celebrates the great By the Shore DSP pack. I love the fun sea motifs included in this pack. I paired the  paper with the coordinating stamp set Seaside Shore. Construction wise, this is a simple card. I cut strips of DSP to create the background and then layered them on top of a piece of Soft Sky. The images were stamped and cut out.

Swimming with the Fishes

Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a manly card. I love the fun underwater look of this card. I layered on a few pieces of DSP, some fussy cut images, and some stamped images. The end result is a lot of layers, but not a complicated card at all.

Just Keep Swimming

Sneak peek time! We're getting so close to the launch of the Holiday Catalog... 

Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a masculine card. This Seaside Shore stamp set and coordinating paper is perfect for all the men in your life. I went with a simple design highlighting the beautiful stripe patter and stamp set. The only other piece I added was a few gold sequins to add a bit of pop. Notice that I fussy cut the fish and popped him on a dimension to give more dimension.

Jumping Fish Beach

Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a card with a beach theme.  Thankfully I just received my a huge stack of DSP including the By the Shore paper pack. And I don't have a beach themed stamp set but thankfully the Jar of Love stamps et includes this cute this fish! Using the DSP and fish as my base, I decided to go with a watercolor beach background. Overall, I love the end result of my card.
