Seashell Hugs

A new challenge at Double Trouble is up today and it’s everyone’s favorite – something, anything,  everything! My card today features something I love as much as stamps and dies – seashells! 🐚

For Thing 1’s recipe just pick what your 3-2-1 items will be and have fun!  Mine is seashells, soft colors, and one ribbon to go along with Thing 3’s option of adding ribbon, twine, or cord. My ribbon is an adorable paper ribbon by The Greetery!

I was also inspired by the Simon Says Stamp Instagram challenge to make a card using dies. My card is all dies!  (With the exception of the tiny hugs sentiment on the tag)

These adorable seashells are by Honeybee Stamps and that GORGEOUS 3D embossing folder is from Simon Says Stamp.  Look at the embossed detail of those shells 🐚I’m so in love with every element on this card!

That Greetery ribbon might just be the best ribbon die cut I have ever seen!  I love it so much!  Something fun I did with it was cut it out of a piece of the same green card stock that I had dry embossed with a different folder.  It gave it some subtle texture

I was just on the beach in the Florida Keys with my hubby weeks ago collecting seashells and having a blast.  Making this card was almost as fun as doing that! For fun, I’ll share my frames that I just finished of the shells we found on that trip🐚🪸

So until I can go shelling again, making cards with shells will have to do, which is so fun too

Thanks for stopping by to see my card today!

Floral and Snowflakes

I got some fabulous new goodies for my birthday yesterday! I couldn’t even fall asleep last night because I was having so much fun die cutting, coloring and just enjoying all of it so much.

My first finished card is one that I made using the Lovely Layers mini Holiday Floral by Honeybee Stamps. There’s also a few of the Layering Snowflakes dies as well

I haven’t played along at one of my favorite for awhile – The Flower Challenge.  Their latest prompt inspired my card. As well as the Honeybee Facebook challenge to make a Christmas card

Florals are always my favorite! These wintery flowers and snowflakes came together to make such a pretty bunch

I love the touch of pink.  It’s a new favorite on Christmas cards for me!  I think the pinecones mixed in with the flowers are so cute too

The Merry Christmas banner across the front is from The Greetery

Thanks for stopping by to see my card today!  I already have a few more cards in the works because I’m having so fun at my stamp desk right now!  So I’ll be back soon!
