By My Side Beauty of Friendship Fun Fold

Happy Saturday everyone!  As you read this, I am at a 5-day stamping/crafting event with my friends.  There are 6 of us in total.  We do this event each October and look forward to spending time crafting, laughing and eating together.  The best part is we can leave our stuff out each night and pick up right where we left off each morning!  

For today's project I have my final project featuring By My Side by Stampin' Up!  I've paired this one with Beauty of Friendship for a fabulous fall card.  I hope you are inspired by my card and the technique used to give the tree it's fall colors.  Be sure to watch the replay over on my YouTube channel to see how I achieved the look HERE:

Whale of a Time ocean scene thank you

My card for you today uses the Whale of a Time suite (154126) from Stampin’ Up!  This is a beautiful suite of products that includes ribbon, Designer Series Paper, sequins, a 3D embossing folder, stamps and a punch.  These products can be purchased as a suite, as a bundle or individually depending on your desires.  I began with an A2 card base in just jade,  I embossed a piece of balmy blue cards stock with the Seabed 3D (152700 ) embossing folder (stunningly beautiful in my opinion), cut it to 4 x 5 1/4” then spritzed with champagne mist shimmer paint mixed with rubbing alcohol.  To this I added a layer of the Whale of a Time Designer Series Paper (152460) cut at 2 x 3 1/4”.  I then stamped two seahorses and the coral and kelp on whisper white.  These images are from the Whale Done stamp set (152470).  It can also be purchased in a bundle (154053) with the Whale punch to save 10%, although we did not use the punch today.  The seahorse is stamped in balmy blue, then thumped with  a Stampin’ write marker in misty moonlight to create the two-toned color on him.  I used the same method on all of my images to create a multi-dimensional image.  For the second seahorse, I stamped in bumblebee ink and thumped in calypso coral.  The kelp is stamped in pool party ink and thumped in pretty peacock.  For the coral, I stamped in calypso coral ink and thumped in cajun craze.  I added a piece of pool party sheer ribbon to the embossed layer and tied a bow.  I then added my sentiment on top of the ribbon.  This piece is cut at 1 1/2 x 3/4” and stamped just jade and thumped with pretty peacock.  I did have to fussy cut the images as the stamp set does not have coordinating dies.  For the finishing touch, I added sequins from the Whale of a Time sequins (152461).  

I love how it turned out.  If you would like to purchase any of these products or any additional Stampin’ Up!
