If you have been following me for a while, iyou know I love the water. I live on a lake and love all things that have to do with the water. So it will come as no surprise that I needed the Seaside Wishes stamp set for my collection as soon as I saw it in the New annual Catalog!
It is a hybrid embossing folder bundle so it was a bonus for me!

This is a simple regular A2 card but it becomes special when you add the hybrid embossing folder to the mix!

I started with the new Basic Beige cardstock for the base. This is our newest core color added to the Basics Collection joining White, Black and Vanilla.

Measurements
BASE: Basic Beige 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
scored at 4 1/4″
Crumb Cake 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″
Pecan Pie 1/4″ x 4 1/4″
Basic White scrap for the sentiment

I die cut the sand dollar images in Crumb cake and then cut the negative piece at 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ for the card front.

I adhered the Crumb Cake cardstock to the card front of a Basic Beige card base.

I stamped the sentiment onto a scrap of Basic White and adhered the sand dollars onto Stampin’ Dimensionals back into their original negative die cut spaces. I adhered the sentiment with tape on the left side and a Dimensional on the right so it would be the same level as the sand dollars.

I added the Basic Beige ribbon to the top of the card and placed it under the top sand dollar die image.

I added Neutrals adhesive-backed Sequins to the card and Wink of Stella on the star images in the center of the sand dollars!

I added an embossed strip of Pecan Pie for a little color and contrast and the card was finished!

Hope you like this set as much as I do – have fun looking though the new catalog and if you need any assistance please do not hesitate to contact me!

Now go and create some artwork of your very own – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’
