Seascape Birthday- Having Fun with Blendabilities :-)

Hi Stampers! 

I have a few more cards to share from my weekend stamping and this one was created with one of my favorite stamp sets, By The Tide along with By The Seashore and our new Stampin’ Blendabilities™ :-)

To create this card:

Stamp the images from By The Tide and By The Seashore using Memento™ Tuxedo Black Ink onto Whisper White cardstock and also stamp each image onto scrap paper or a sticky note (to create a mask).

Color the images using the Coastal Cabana and Skin Tone Stampin’ Blendabilities™ Collections.  Add additional color using the Crumb Cake Stampin’ Write marker to the starfish and shell images. 

Trim around each image to create the panels and place the mask over each image and ink the script stamp from By the Tide with Coastal Cabana Classic Ink and repeatedly stamp onto the images. 

Ink the coral image from By The Tide using Bermuda Bay Classic Ink and stamp over the masked images. 

Add the distressing using the Gorgeous Grunge splatter stamp inked with Night of Navy Classic Ink and use a Sponge Dauber to apply Night of Navy Classic Ink. 

Mount each panel onto Whisper White cardstock, trim and mount again onto Bermuda Bay cardstock, trim and mount onto Night of Navy cardstock.

Use the Big Shot™ with the Woodgrain Textured Impressions™ Embossing Folder to emboss a piece of Whisper White cardstock, trim and mount onto a piece of Bermuda Bay cardstock.   

Stamp the sentiment from Wetlands using Night of Navy Classic Ink onto Whisper White cardstock, punch out using the Large Oval Punch, “huff” onto the Coral stamp image to re-moisten the ink and stamp over the sentiment and stamp the Nantucket image using Bermuda Bay Classic Ink.  Sponge Night of Navy Classic Ink over the edges and mount onto Large Ovals punched from Bermuda Bay and Night of Navy cardstock.

Add the image panels using Stampin’ Dimensionals® to the Woodgrain panel. 

Create the rope using Linen Thread and mount onto the panel along with the sentiment.

Adhere the entire panel to the Night of Navy card base to finish off the card.

  1. Can you give the dimensions on the squares/rectangles for the stamped image. I can figure out the rest.

  2. Hi Katy! I just stamped the images and left an area around each one to trim the panel, mount onto the cardstock, trim again, mount and trim..I normally do not measure and do not have this card available to measure for you...sorry, hope this helps :-)

  3. I've been looking at several of your cards made with these stamps and colors, they are GORGEOUS! I love the colors and the look. I'm making a birthday card for my Diving buddy, and will be following your ideas. Thank you for the inspiration.
