Inspired by the Hand Stamped Sentiments color challenge of Flirty Flamingo, Balmy Blue and Old Olive I created this card with the Seaside Bay Suite. The card base is Balm Blue and the patterned layer is from the By the Bay 6″ x 6″ Specialty Designer Series Paper Pack.

Love the clam shell die which I embossed with gold embossing powder. The Balmy Blue an White ribbon behind the clam shell is also from the suite. I also used gold cording to embellish. The sentiment, grass and shell are also from the suite. Inside the clam shell I added a flat adhesive backed pearl for a surprise.

I finally put ink to the Quiet Meadow stamp set and inspired by the sketch challenge at Hand Stamped Sentiments. I wanted to make a monochromatic card and decided to use Polished Pink. The background was sponged with Polished Pink and Fresh Freesia. The flower images, text and sentiment were stamped with Polished Pink. The splatters were stamped with Crumb Cake. I die cut the images using the coordinating dies. The flower I fussy cut and sponged color then used Wink of Stella all over the flower.

I saw the Hand Stamped Sentiments challenge colors of Evening Evergreen, Soft Succulent and Merry Merlot and I immediately knew I had to use the stamp sets in the Painted Christmas Suite. The card base is Basic White, Painted Christmas DSP, Pine branches die cut from Evening Evergreen. The Basic White label was die cut also from the suite. The other foliage was also die cut using dies from the suite. The sprig punch was used to die cut sprigs from gold Metallic Specialty paper. Gold Foil paper was used for the pine cones and the banner strip behind the label. The banner strip was embossed with the Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder. The sentiment was heat embossed with gold on a banner die cut from Merry Merlot with a die also from the suite. The card was embellished with In-Color jewels
