I used the retired Seaside Stamp set which is very similar to the new By the Seashore Set in the new Catalog.
I used Crumb Cake cardstock layered with vanilla cardstock. to make the background on the vanilla cardstock, I embossed the piece with the Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder. I used a little pretty in pink ink on a dauber to add a little bit of color to the raised image.
I then inked the starfish using pretty in pink ink and then used crumb cake ink over the pretty in pink to give it a variety of color. As we all know, shells are never just one color. I love the combination of pink and the crumb cake. The squares of designer paper are from the Comfort Cafe collection. The ribbon is the victorian lace ribbon.
I wanted a card with a beachy theme. I have been working on table cards and place cards for a beach themed wedding that is next weekend. So I wanted the card to have the same theme as the cards.
These are the table and place cards that I made for Lindsey O'Leary. Best wishes to Lindsey and Michael!!
Enjoy your weekend!! Don't forget to check out what my other blogging friends have been up to!!
