New Horizons Seashell Card

If you noticed a Beach theme in my cardmaking lately, you wouldn’t be wrong. The beach is one of my happy places! Spoiler alert…you’re going to get to see another beach-themed card next week made from a very special bundle. That’s all I can share for now so stay tuned!

Today’s card uses the New Horizons 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper once again. If you haven’t decided yet to purchase this paper, what are you waiting for? From my New Horizons paper pack, I selected a 6″ x 6″ sheet of paper that looked like a beach scene – blue sky, sandy beach, and a shoreline. I stamped one of the larger seashell images from the Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set onto a piece of Basic White card stock, then using a sponge dauber, added some Pale Papaya ink to the white areas of the stamped image for a more realistic look. A scrap piece of coordinating DSP was used for the sentiment label. I did add a bow to this card. You may choose to add some gems…or nothing at all! For the inside of the card a 1″ strip of coordinating DSP was adhered to the Basic White mat and Pale Papaya was used to color the edges of the basic white mat. This completes today’s card – how easy is this?

I’ll be featuring one more New Horizons card tomorrow and a special project for Friday so be sure to pop in.
