Let’s Create

Affix all stamps to Acrylic Blocks.
Fold the Card Base in half using a Bone Folder to sharpen the crease.
Emboss the 4 ¾” x 3 ¾” Crumb Cake Cardstock just on the right half using the splatters Embossing Folder from the Stripes and Splatters bundle.
Tear the Designer Series Paper at an angle so that the top edge measures approximately 1 ¼”. Use ⅜” – ½” of the torn edge with the to layer about ⅜” to ½” from the edge, this creates a layered, wave look.
Tape this to the left side of the Crumb Cake cardstock layer.
Adhere these layers to the Basic White 4 ⅞” x 3 ⅞” Basic White Cardstock.
Using 2 strands of Linen Thread, wrap around these layers and tie into a bow towards the left of the card.
Adhere these layers to the 5 ⅜” x 4 ⅛” Misty Moonlight Cardstock layer, then adhere to the folded card base.
Using Black Memento Ink, stamp the seashell image to the 2 ½” x 2 ½” square of Basic White Cardstock – stamping it twice so the it forms a circle.
Color the shells using Stampin’ Blends. I used Daffodil Delight, Crumb Cake, Calypso Coral, Balmy Blue and Night of Navy.
Use the 2 ⅜” Circle Punch to punch the stamped image and adhere it to the 2 ½” x 2 ½” Night of Navy piece of Cardstock.
Using Copper Clay ink pad, stamp the Happy Birthday onto the 1 ⅝” x ⅝” piece of cardstock.
Adhere this to the center of the circle using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Decorate the inside of your card and your envelope and send it off to wish someone a Happy Beachy Birthday!
