Beach Babies & Coastal Cuties Cards with Mendi

Hello and welcome! This is Mendi, popping in to share some bright & happy summer cards featuring our Beach Babies Stamps and Coastal Cuties Stamps.

Sunny Studio Summer Kids Cards using Beach Babies & Coastal Cuties Clear Craft Stamps & Catch a Wave Metal Cutting Dies

For my first card, I used the Frilly Frames Stripes Dies to cut a striped background from scratch cardstock, which I used as a stencil with the discontinued Deco Foil Metallix Gel in White Pearl. After the medium was completely dry, I inked on alternating colors of Distress Ink for a happy rainbow background.

I then die-cut my oval frame's top and bottom portion using the Stitched Oval Dies with blue cardstock for the sky and tan cardstock for the sand. I trimmed my sandy hill using the Slimline Nature Border Dies and stippled the sand texture using E42, E43, and E44 Copic Markers. For the images in my summer scene, I used the girl from the Coastal Cuties Stamps, the smiling sun from the Balloon Rides Stamps, and all the other accessories from the Beach Babies Stamps. Lastly, I heat-embossed a sentiment from the Beach Babies set onto a pennant strip from the Notebook Photo Corners Dies onto a pink print from our Classic Gingham Paper pack.

My second card features the kids in pool floaties from the Beach Babies Stamps and Coastal Cuties Stamps. I cut and layered two wave borders cut with the Catch a Wave Dies and inked the bottom portion of each wave using Mermaid Lagoon Distress Ink. For extra interest, I added sea foam to the top edge of each wave by adding dots with my white gel pen. For my curved sandy border on the bottom of my card, I used the Slimline Nature Border Dies and added a pink striped border between the waves and sand using the Ribbon & Lace Border Dies with Striped Silly Paper.

Sealiously Sweet Card by Tina

Hello crafters, it’s Tina and we are ready for a fun beach day! How adorable are the cuties from the Sealiously Sweet stamp and die set! So let’s create a breezy summer card together by making a white card base which we’ll embellish with a striped stencil from my stash and some Prize Ribbon Distress Oxide.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Sealiously Sweet Summer Themed Card by Tina Henkens (featuring Catch A Wave Dies, Fancy Frame Dies, Stitched Circle Dies)

For the centerpiece, I cut two circles from white card stock with the outer of the Stitched Circles Large set. One of them will be my base to which I will glue the scene parts. To obtain these parts, I cut the second white circle in three using two of the Catch a Wave dies.

The bottom portion was turned into a sandy beach (Fossilized Amber and Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxide), for the waves and sky I used Prize Ribbon again (sky stencil from my stash). Some water splatters added lots of details to these pieces.

Next, I glued the three parts together onto the white circle we already made, and they fit like a little puzzle. I selected three adorable seals and a sun hat from the Sealiously Sweet stamp and colored them with my Copic markers. As always, I added some white details with a gel pen.

Then I took my time to figure out where I would place the seals so I had enough space left for my big sentiment (Beach Buddies) which I stamped directly to the sky portion with Versafine Onyx Black ink.

Before mounting the seals, I did add a few splashes of ‘foam’ using a white pigment ink from my stash and a small blending brush. To really emphasize the scene I also adhered a double layer of a white circle border (Fancy Frames Circle dies). As a final embellishment, I sprinkled a few blue diamonds from the Bright Jewel mix.

I hope you got inspired by this fun summer card! Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

Mermaid Kisses & Oceans of Joy Cards with Mendi

Hello and welcome! This is Mendi here today, popping in to share some sea-themed cards for summer using our Mermaid Kisses Stamps and Oceans of Joy Stamps.

Sunny Studio Under The Sea Summer Cards using Mermaid Kisses & Oceans of Joy Clear Craft Stamps & Catch A Wave Cutting Dies

For my first card using the Mermaid Kisses Stamps, I paired the mermaids with the dolphin and the octopus from our Oceans of Joy Stamps, the palm trees from our Sending Sunshine Stamps and Ocean View Stamps, and the island from our Tropical Scenes Stamps. To create the waves to tuck my critters between, I cut four layers using our Catch A Waves Dies. I added the sunrays behind my island, using a soft lilac print from our Spring Sunburst Paper pack, and stamped my punny birthday greeting using a sentiment from the Mermaid Kisses set.

For my second card, I started with a sparkly background I originally created for the posts shared HERE and HERE. This was my first attempt where I had some of the glitter gel seep below the stencil I had made with our Frilly Frames Lattice Dies. However, always the saver, I hated to throw it away, so I held onto it for six years "just in case." Well, I finally put it to good use, hiding most of my boo-boos behind the giant whale (and turtle) from our Oceans of Joy Stamps. It adds such a pretty sparkle to the scene in person! I added coral and kelp to my sea floor using images from our Best Fishes Stamps, Magical Mermaids Stamps, and the Mermaid Kisses Stamps. Lastly, I added the mermaid and sentiment from the Mermaid Kisses, stamping it onto a pennant strip from the Notebook Photo Corner Dies.
