A Sea of Thanks

Howdy peeps! Woah, can you believe it’s July 1st already?! We’re officially into the second half of the year! Our new challenge is live this morning over at Love To Craft Challenge Blog and I’m super stoked to share my DT inspiration project for LTCCB #75 – Anything Goes! I used some gorgeous seascapes patterned paper and a side pop-up die set from Hot Off The Press paired with a couple Stampin’ Up stamp sets for this thank you card and I absolutely love how it turned out! I definitely see more of this ‘side pop-up’ style card in my future, lol!

Using the Hot Off The Press Side Pop-Up Card Cutting Dies, I cut the card base from CutCardStock Basis 110# Natural cardstock along with layering panels from Hot Off The Press Seascapes & Sand 6×6 double-sided papers. I stamped several fish from the Stampin’ Up A Fish & A Wish stamp set in Memento Bamboo Leaves, Morocco, Peanut Brittle and Danube Blue inks and punched them with the Stampin’ Up Fish Builder Punch.

I stamped a sentiment from the same stamp set in Memento Paris Dusk ink and cut it with a My Favorite Things Essential Fishtail Sentiment Strips die. The finishing touch was adding several elements from the Buttons Galore & More Beach Mix Upz Embellishments.

I cut the inside panel from CutCardStock Basis 80# Natural cardstock and embellished it with a strip of the Hot Off The Press Seascapes & Sand paper. I stamped a sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Happy & Heartfelt stamp set in Memento Paris Dusk ink.
