I created this card for my son, Nathan who is a great dad to his two kids!  He has an aquarium so I knew that I wanted  to use the fish images from the Seaside Shore stamp set to create a shaker card with an aquarium feel.  I think I succeeded!

Swirly Bird and Swirly Scribbles

Swirly Bird

Stamp Set – Suite Sayings, Swirly Bird
Cardstock – Melon Mambo, Soft Sky, Pacific Point
Ink – Daffodil Delight, Melon Mambo, Pacific Point
Accessories – Swirly Scribbles, Big Shot, Precision Plate, Big Shot Die Brush, Brights Enamel Shapes, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Snail Adhesive

I was sitting in my stamping studio listening to the birds sing and was inspired to use the Swirly Bird stamp set.  Initially, I just bought the Swirly Scribbles Framelits but soon found that I wanted the coordinating stamp set.

I could have saved 10% if I had purchased them together as a bundle!

Stamping Tip: Use the Precision Plate for cutting intricate thinlits/framelits dies and the Big Shot Die Brush to loosen the cardstock from the die.  It makes a world of difference!

Comments: 6

I’m in love!  I finally had a chance to break open my Flourishing Phrases stamp set and coordinating Flourish Thinlits.  They are both winners and you can save 10% when you purchase them as a bundle.  WM # 142322 or Cm # 142323.

Below you can see the card I created for this week’s Pals Paper Arts Color Challenge.

PPA 305

Stamp Set – Flourishing Phrases
Cardstock – Pool Party, Island Indigo, Whisper White
Ink – Pool Party, Island Indigo
Accessories – Flourish Thinlits Dies, Big Shot, Precision Plate, Die Brush, Pearls Basic Jewels, Snail Adhesive, Stampin’ Dimensionals

This color combo is a winner.  I find it calm and soothing….kind of like the ocean.
