Seashell Hello

I don’t know about you, but I prefer to not have to do much on a Friday! That was not the case yesterday at the Stamp, Ink, Paper Store. I did manage to get all of the things that I wanted to get accomplished done, but I was so busy that it was 4:00PM before I knew it! I did get my haircut in the morning and then stopped by Heather’s to pick up a nice salad that she had put together for me! I actually ate it at 3:30, more like linner! LOL! After work I managed to get home in time to see my little Daniel! I got a big hug when I came in the house and we played with monster trucks for a bit before my brother took him home. I watched a little TV when I got o my house and then got an idea for a card so I went into the Stampin’ Galley, still my favorite place to create! Today Renee is having a No-Frills Crop so I will get to spend some time with the ladies! Should be a fun day!

The card that crept into my head last night starts off with a base of Ivory 110lb Card Stock. I took some Heidi Swapp Gold and Bronzer Color Shine and flicked it onto the card front. While that dried I used the Spellbinders Seashells Die D-lites to cut out some Ice Gold, Shadow and White Gold Curious Metallic. I embossed it too, love the texture that gives the die cuts! Before adhering the shells to the card with 3D Foam Squares I added a piece of Washi Tape and a thin strip of Gold Mirror Card across the lower half. My greeting is from the Altenew Label Love Photopolymer Stamp Set and is stamped in Onyx Black onto a piece of Kraft. I used my Scissors to cut out out and adhered to the card with more 3D Foam Squares. To finish the card I added Pretty Pink Posh Pewter, Rose Gold, Charcoal, Sparkling Clear and Gold Sequins. I actually love the way this card came out! I think it looks just like some shells washed up on the beach! I hope that you enjoyed my card for today! Yes, I’m holding onto Sumer with all of my might! LOL! Thanks for coming by today! I wish you all great start to your weekend! 🙂
