Loved Beyond Measure

This is a very straightforward card using Black, White, and Basic Beige.  I love how the color block technique makes it pop.  The Layered Florals Embossing Folder looks great on Black - you wouldn't think of a floral design in black, but I think it works.

Measurements:
Basic Beige Base - 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
Black 4" x 5 1/4"
White 3 3/4" x 5"
Basic Beige 3 1/4" x 4 1/4"
Basic Black (Embossed Layer) 3" x 4"
Basic White for the sentiment: 1" x 3 7/8"

The sentiment is from the retired set 'Perennial Postage', but I love to mix and match sentiments, so comb through your stash to see what you have that will fit.

Emboss the smaller Black panel using the Layered Florals 3D Embossing Folder.
Layers: Basic Beige Base, Black 4" x 5 1/4", White 3 3/4" x 5", Basic Beige 3 1/4" x 4 1/4", Embossed Black 3" x 4".

Add the sentiment using dimensionals - I embellished it with retired black gems.

Seaside Wishes in Blues

Image
  I stamped and die cut lots of the images from the new Seaside Wishes Hybrid Embossing Bundle so I could play around with colors and layout.  The embossed background is basic beige, run through the Seaside Wishes Embossing Folder.  The blue dsp along the left edge is from Country Woods 12"x12" DSP.  I love this paper! I used Blending Brushes to add Pecan Pie & Crumb Cake to the sand dollar images on the top layer of the folder.  Then added the dies to emboss and cut at once.  The definition is really nice. The sand dollars have one dimensional in the center, then the outer edges are glued down.  I like how that adds just a bit of dimension. The sentiment is on a 2 1/4" x 3 1/4" piece of Basic White, then mounted on a 2 1/2" x 3 1/2" piece of Night of Navy. It was a lot of fun playing with this set!

Seaside Wishes in Pretty Peacock

Image
  I love this color combination using the new Seaside Wishes Bundle.  The Hybrid Embossing folder is just amazing!  I used a blending brush to add Crumb Cake ink and Pretty Peacock ink to the sand dollar images in the top portion of the folder, then used the dies to emboss and cut the 3 sand dollars out at once.  The definition it gives the sand dollar is beautiful! I also stamped the large and small star fish in Pretty Peacock & Copper Clay, and die cut them to add dimension.  The DSP is from the Country Woods 12" x 12" DSP.  This pretty wood print is actually the back side of one of the sheets.  I also used a torn strip of Crumb Cake cardstock across the center of the card.  The sentiment is stamped in Pretty Peacock, and punched with the Labeled with Love Punch.  I felt it was a little too big for the area I left for it, so I trimmed the top and bottom. The card is finished with Pecan Pie Center Stripe Ribbon.  Let me know what yo...
