Sun, Sea & Sand WLSC

Hi Everyone, my DT card today is for We Love Stamping. This month, we would love to see your cards with the theme chosen by Emma of  

Sun, Sea & Sand
 

I haven't got many stamps with the theme of the Sea, so I used the embossing folder I used before here. I had a freebie with my subscription magazine with the shell and seahorse stamps and the paper with a sentiment from another earlier magazine. 
 
Unashamedly, I cased the card from the packing with the EF. A slight difference, as I used the paper included in the pack in the cutout of the stamps. The EF was placed onto a blue card and attached to the base card. While sorting my craft room, I found some white hammered card for the EF and the main card. 

stamps and background patterned paper - docrafts Papermania, inside Simply Card and Papercraft magazine, a while ago.
embossing folder - Creative Craft Products, SCP magazine freebie
bakers twine - stash 
inks - Distress Inks,chipped sapphire, antique linen, ripe persimmon,
embossing powder - Papermania silver. 



Another fabulous prize this month from -

That's a gorgeous card, Faith, and I love all the texture and the perfect sentiment for the theme. Sorting the craft room brings lots of older stash to the surface again, and I find it's like having new stuff!
Hope you are well,
Hugs

Congrats on your prize winnings, nice! And I do love that folder with the cut out in center. Fab sea life card! xoxo

Such a wonderful way to bring the Sun, Sea & Sand theme to life—your clever use of the embossing folder adds depth and movement, like waves meeting the shore. The subtle shimmer of the silver embossing powder catches the eye beautifully, and the stamped shells and seahorse nestle so naturally in their little frame. The hammered card was a brilliant find—it adds a tactile charm that echoes the sandy textures of a beach day. Love how the bakers twine wraps everything together like a coastal breeze.
