My tutorial today is for a Seaside Spray seashell birthday card. This card uses the retiring Seaside Spray In Color which is only available while supplies last.

In the tutorial below, I take you step by step through creating the Seaside Spray seashell birthday card. I also have a supply list for purchasing anything you don’t already own.

Several of the suites in the January-June catalogue incorporate 2019-21 In Colors. The catalogue runs until 30 June but the 2019-21 In Colors are retiring at the end of April and so ink pads, cardstock and embellishments are now only available while supplies last. Please don’t miss the chance to get any items you might need to co-ordinate with these great products – they’re selling out already. Today I’m focusing on the Sand & Sea suite which includes Seaside Spray.

Colour Combo

The colour combo mixes Seaside Spray, Sahara Sand and Flirty Flamingo.

Seaside Spray seashell birthday card

Start with an A6 landscape card of Seaside Spray. Cut a card front layer of Sand & Sea DSP. Cut this layer approximately in half horizontally and flip one of the papers over so that you have both patterns showing. Adhere direct to a mat of Sahara Sand. Wrap Seaside Spray Metallic Ribbon over the join in the DSP and secure on the reverse of the layers before adhering them direct to the card front.

Die cut one of the Ornate Frames from Basic White card. Using Misty Moonlight ink, stamp a sentiment from the Friends Are Like Seashells set onto the frame and pop up on the card front with dimensionals. Using Sahara Sand ink, stamp a shell from the same set onto a scrap of Basic White card. Fussy cut out the shell or partially die cut the shell with the Seaside Seashells dies. This die set leaves the shell attached to other parts of the larger cut-out so you will still need to fussy cut a little away. Pop the shell up on the card front with dimensionals.

Seaside Spray seashell birthday card insert

On the Basic White insert, stamp another sentiment from the Friends Are Like Seashells set using Misty Moonlight ink. Add small shells from the set in the bottom left corner with Seaside Spray ink and a starfish in the lower right corner with Sahara Sand ink.

Thanks for stopping by.
