Today is not just another More Color Monday, I also get to introduce a new Core Basic Color from Stampin’ Up! We rarely add a Basic Core Color, I am not sure we ever have actually! We have Basic White, Basic Black and Basic Vanilla and we have added with this new annual catalog Basic Beige! It is a beautiful light beige color that goes well with just about everything!

Today I am pairing it with Pecan Pie and Cherry Cobbler and using the New Seaside Wishes hybrid bundle.

Measurements:
BASE: Cherry Cobbler 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
scored at 4 1/4″
Basic White: scraps for dies
Basic Beige: scraps for dies
Pecan Pie: scraps for dies

Insert a sheet of Basic White cardstock into the hybrid embossing folder fitted with the die and run through the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine.
This will cut three different sized sand dollars.
Randomly stamp the small starfish image onto the Cherry Cobbler cardstock with Cherry Cobbler ink for a subtle tone on tone pattern.
I always tell me stampers when you start stamping on a blank page – stamp in triangles – look for patterns of three it is easier to stamp in a pattern and the law of threes makes a pleasing symmetrical and balanced finished product!
Tie a knotted ribbon to the upper edge of the base card with the Basic Beige Bordered ribbon. cut out various dies in Basic Beige and Pecan Pie and arrange them in a desired pattern on the card front. Stamp the sentiment onto one of the banner dies from the Stylish Shapes dies and pop that up over the die created design on the card front.
Add Embellishments to the card front and this delightful seaside wishes card is complete.

I love this set and I hope you enjoyed this latest installment of More Color Mondays. Consider playing along with us and stamping at least once a week – it’s great for your soul and metal health!

Happy Stampin’
Natalie
