Friends are Like Seashells for Create. Inspire 82

I'm so enjoying the Friends Are Like Seashells bundle that I keep playing with it! This time, I've used the sketch at Inspire.Create as inspiration.


There's so much to love about this set. In this case, I've used the outline stamps for the sand dollar and the starfish and coloured them with Stampin' Blends. The seashell is a DistINKtive stamp, so is lovely by itself. I've added in stamped sea-foliage (which come with matching dies) and cut some seaweed from the large die cut in the set as well.

What looks like a seascape with sky on the horizon is actually a circle cut from the Sand & Sea DSP. I've mounted that on a Stitched Circle of Sahara Sand.


After embossing a piece of Seaside Spray with the Pinewood Plank 3D folder, I rubbed it over lightly with some Whisper White ink to add to the coastal flavour of this card.

Delighted to be chosen as winner at Inspire. Create. Challenge.

  5. This card is amazing. Can you please share what die you used as the sprigs in the sea foam green? I see two are from the die set but don’t recognize the ones that are not stamped.
