Hello Creative Friends!
Welcome to my blog. It has been a WHILE since I’ve posted. Kids, family life and health have been a priority. I do have to say I miss spending time being creative. And I miss sharing my creations with you.
The project I’m sharing today was created earlier this year for the Stampin’ Fancy Friday Technique Focus Challenge back in April 2024. I chose the showcase the Faux Suede technique. It’s super easy to do and creates wonderful texture that really adds charm to your projects.
[All supplies used in this project are shown at the end of this post and are linked to my Stampin’ Up! online store. You can purchase them and create this project too! Thank you for your support of my stamping adventure]
Project Details:
- Card Base: Pool Party
- Card Front: Basic White (9 x 13.35 cm)
- Faux Suede Panel: Pool Party (7.5 x 13 cm)
- Start by stamping the wave/bubbles image from the Sea Turtle stamp set in second generation Pool Party ink onto the Basic White card front.
- Then using the So Swirly Embossing Folder, emboss and then adhere to the card front.
- Scrunch and curve your Pool Party cardstock with a bone folder till it is super soft. Die cut out using the irregular hexagon die from the Nested Essentials Dies and then carefully separate the layers! Adhere to the card front.
- On some scraps of Basic White cardstock, stamp the small and large turtles from the Sea Turtle stamp set. I stamped them in Lost Lagoon ink, the details in first generation and then solid shape in second generation ink. Fussy cut out.
- Also stamp the star fish from the Sea Turtle stamp set in Petal Pink ink. Again the details in first generation ink and the solid shape in second generation ink.
- Adhere the turtles and star fish onto the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Stamp the “Thank You” sentiment from the Darling Details stamp set to the Faux Suede panel in Pool Party ink.
- To finish off add some Adhesive Backed Shiny Sequins in Pumpkin Pie.
To really complete the card I love to decorate the inside Insert and the envelope. For both I stamped the bubble/wave image from the Sea Turtle stamp set.
Thank you for visiting my blog! I hope that I’ve inspired you to be creative.
Bye for now!
