Friends are like Seashells

G’Day Friends.

I do hope you are enjoying your day so far.

I have been playing with the lovely Friends are like Seashells Stamp Set of late & thought I would share a project that I’ve created from bits & pieces left over on my desk.

A piece of Very Vanilla Cardstock has been embossed with the Seashells 3D Embossing Folder before randomly being chopped into 6 pieces & then put back together by adhering each piece to a layer of Blackberry Bliss Cardstock.  This layer was then adhered to a Crumb Cake Base Card.

The large shell was stamped onto Very Vanilla Cardstock in Crumb Cake Ink, die cut with the Seaside Seashells Dies before being embossed with the Seashells 3D Embossing Folder & adhered to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The seniment was stamped onto scrap Very Vanilla in Real Red Ink, die cut with a die from the Stitched Rectangles Dies & adhered to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I am loving this colour combination – a combination I would never have selected but one I think I will be using again.

It’s always good to get out of your comfort zone, right?

Manly Monday with Friends are like Seashells

G’Day Friends,

Once again, its time for Manly Monday!

Today I have something a little different to share with you in that I pulled the Friends are like Seashells Stamp Set off my shelf.  Sad to say, this lovely stamp has not been used in sometime.

So now I have my Stamp Set, its Manly Monday, now to decide on the colours which is where Very Vanilla comes into play.

I have the both Cardstock & Stamp Set so its time to bring in colours that have not seen the light of day for sometime.  Out pops Cinnamon Cider along with Cherry Cobbler & Crumb Cake.  I’m not keen on Cinnamon Cider, Cherry Cobbler I will play with but Crumb Cake, now that is a keeper.  Well, that I have 1 colour that I love lol, I don’t want to make it too hard for myself.

Where to from here?  “Keep it simple”, I keep telling myself which is exactly what I think I’ve done.

The sentiment is from the Best Year Stamp Set, stamped direct onto the Very Vanilla in Cinnamon Cider Ink prior to being adhered to a Cinnamon Cider Base Card.

The shell was stamped in Crumb Cake Ink, again on Very Vanilla, die cut with the Seaside Seashells Dies & embossed with the Seashells 3D Embossing Folder.

The Cherry Cobbler DSP has been adhered to a piece of Crumb Cake Cardstock, then to Very Vanilla with Stampin’ Dimensionals & finally to the Cinnamon Cinder Base Card.
