Waving

Do you like to swim in the ocean or dip into the water at the beach? To tell you the truth, I am not a fan. I love the sound of the waves, and the light breeze, but when it comes to strong winds, blazing sun, and sharing the water with WHAT? Still, I enjoy making cards with this stamp and die combo. What do you think? 

Stamps:

   Waves of Inspiration

Paper:

   Night of Navy A-2

   Waves of the Ocean DSP 2-1/2 x 5-1/4

   Pacific Point 5-3/8 x 2-5/8

   Basic White 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside), Scraps (Clouds & Sentiment)

Ink:

   Night of Navy

Technique:

   Die Cutting

Accessories:

   Waves Dies

   Rhinestone Waves Basic Jewels

   Dimensionals

   Adhesive

First, I die cut the wave, using the Waves dies and the Pacific Point panel.

I then adhered the die cut to the front of the DSP panel.

Next, I adhered this panel to the bottom of the Night of Navy card front.

I then stamped the sentiment on a scrap of Basic White.

Next, I die cut the sentiment, along with a couple of clouds.

I then adhered the sentiment and clouds, using dimensionals.

Lastly, I added a couple of jewels and adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

Favored Birthday

This is a wonderful layout for smaller panels of designer series paper. Just like everyone else, you probably start with a 12 x 12 sheet, or maybe a 6 x 6 sheet. Either way, once you cut your panels to fit an A-2 size card, you find that there seems to be a few scraps that you just hate to throw away. After all, this paper can be quite expensive. Just create a matte for these left-over panels and arrange them on a card front. Add a sentiment, some embellishments and mail it away. What do you think?

Stamps:

   Waves of Inspiration

Paper:

   Blackberry Bliss A-2, 2-1/4 x 3-3/4 (2)

   Basic White 5-3/8 x 4-1/8, 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside), Scrap

   Mossy Meadow 5-1/4 x 4

   Favored Flowers DSP 2 x 3-1/2

Ink:

   Blackberry Bliss

Technique:

   Dry Embossing

   Die Cutting

Accessories:

   Waves Dies

   Layered Leaves 3D Embossing Folder

   Dimensionals

   Adhesive

First, I embossed the Mossy Meadow panel, using the Layered Leaves 3D embossing folder.

I then adhered it to the Basic White panel, and then onto the Blackberry Bliss card front.

Next, I adhered the two DSP panels onto two Blackberry Bliss mattes.

I then arranged them onto the card front and adhered them with liquid adhesive.

Lastly, I stamped, die cut, and adhered the sentiment to the center of the card, using dimensionals. I also adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

Thank You Pelican

If you have ever been close to a pier, you more than likely have come across a pelican or several. They like to perch themselves along the pier. Why do they do this? I suspect they like being close to their food source. What do you think? 

Stamps:

   Waves of Inspiration

   Flowing Flowers

Paper:

   Soft Suede A-2, 1-1/2 x 3

   Simply Marbleous DSP 5-1/4 x 4

   Basic White 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside)

Ink:

   Soft Suede

Technique:

   Die Cutting

Accessories:

   Jute Twine 12"

   Rhinestone Waves Basic Jewels

   Waves Dies

   Stampin' Seal+

   Dimensionals

   Adhesive

First, I stamped and die cut the pelican on its perch and set it aside.

Second, I stamped the sentiment on the top left of the DSP.

I then took the jute twine and tied a knot at various intervals. About a width of a finger apart.

I adhered the twine across the lower half of the DSP and wrapped it around the back using Stampin' Seal+.

Next, I adhered the DSP panel to the Soft Suede card front.

Lastly, I added a few rhinestones and adhered the Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

Waving Congratulations

The movement shown on the designer series paper really highlights the motion of the wave on the forefront. I decided to use glimmer paper to aid the wave's presence. What do you think?

Stamps:

   Art Gallery

Paper:

   Pacific Point A-2

   Basic Black 5-3/8 x 4-1/8

   Basic white 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside), 3/4 x 3-1/4

   Soft Sky 5-1/4 x 4

   Waves of the Ocean DSP 5-1/4 x 2-1/2

   Myths & Magic Glimmer 5-1/4 x 2-1/2 (2)

Ink:

   Night of Navy

   Pacific Point

Technique:

   Die Cutting

   Blending/Sponging

Accessories:

   Waves Dies

   Rhinestone Waves Basic Jewels

   Blending Brush/Sponge

   Dimensionals

   Glue Dots

   Adhesive

First, I die cut the waves and the birds.

Next, I stamped and die cut the sentiment.

I adhered the waves to the strip of DSP. I used adhesive for the bottom wave on the DSP, and added the top wave using glue dots.

I then adhered the DSP to the Soft Sky as shown.

I matted this panel with Basic Black and then adhered it to the Pacific Point card front.

I used a blending brush to add a bit of blue to the sentiment. You can use a sponge if you do not have a blending brush. I then attached it to the card front using dimensionals.

Next, I added the birds with a bit of adhesive.

Lastly, I added a couple of rhinestones and the basic white panel to the inside of the card.
