Hello and welcome! This is Mendi, popping in to share some bright & happy summer cards featuring our Beach Babies Stamps and Coastal Cuties Stamps.
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.
That wraps up my projects for this morning. I hope I've inspired you in your own cardmaking and that you spread a little happiness by sending out a card to a loved one today. 😊
