Scenic Coast Retirement Card

As we wind down the month of August I thought I’d share a lovely retirement card with you made with the Sunset Coast Stamp Set (167775).

This card uses the Book Binding fold creating a fun twist with just a simple score line and some adhesive. The card base is 4 1/4″ x 11″ and the card base is scored at 4 1/4″ and 5 1/2″. Folded in half and then adhesive is added between the 4 1/4″ and 5 1/2″ mark and adhered down to create the book binding.

Simple stamping was used for the focal point and this set is great to create scenes with like this since it contains all kinds of fun 2 step images. A strip of the Scenic Coast Specialty Designer Series Paper (167773) and some twine from the Baker’s Twine Essential Pack (155475) adds a bit more interest and enhances the nautical feel.

This stamp set contains a lovely font and wonderful sentiments to create with.

And if you love this set, stop by to see the Scenic Coast Suite (167786) in my Online Store. It’s filled with some wonderful coordinating goodies to create with.

Sunset Coast Birthday Card Tutorial

Love the ocean or lakes? If so today’s card is inspired by those every day summer scenes you see while at the waterside. Sail boats majestically sailing on the water or silhouetted by the sunset. Today’s card was inspired by just that my love of those peaceful moments and watching the waves roll in during that magical time.

This card background was created with a simple Blending Brush technique and Classic Ink Pads.

This card was created with the Sunset Coast Dies (167780) which is part of the Scenic Coast Suite (167786). And since I wanted a birthday sentiment I chose the Phrases & Frames Stamp set (167581). I love how we can mix and match Stampin’ Up! products!

Sunset Coast

Yesterday, I shared a lovely card using the Waterside Retreat Suite (167932) so today I thought I’d share another water themed suite with you, the Scenic Coast Suite (167786).

This Suite contains a Specialty Designer Series Paper that is sure to be very popular! Want to see the card?

Here we go – I love the ease of this card and the use of the Party Banner Dies (165264) for a different take.

This card uses a bit of simple stamping right onto the Scenic Coast Specialty Designer Series Paper (167773) and a sailboat die cut from Secret Sea Card stock. This die cut gives a bit of texture and has used Wink of Stella Glitter Brush (141897) to make it shine.

This card transports me right back to the beach, warm summer nights, and enjoying the sunsets. How about you?
