Beachy Card

I always like a beachy card (or decoration, or drink, or vacation).  My inspiration for this one came from Pinterest.  The original card had coral instead of flowers and a fish instead of a shell, but the basic colors and layout are lifted from someone else.

 

This photo shows the dimension:

The colors are CTMH's Lilac Mist and Sunset.  The stamp sets used are CTMH's "Air Mail" (background text), "Catching Waves" (flowers), and Quick Cards "Shell" (shell).  The white piece and the shell are attached with dimensional adhesive.  The Lilac Mist mat was embossed with my Cuttlebug.  I added a little shading on the shell and flowers with a light grey (C1) Copic marker.

 

Pair-a-Phrase Snowman Card

A post on Pinterest inspired this card.  I liked the dark blue and red with brown, so I copied the scheme for this card using the snowman from CTMH's "Pair-a-Phrase" stamp set.  I stamped the snowman on white cs, then colored with copics.  I ran the Twilight blue mat through my Cuttlebug for the snowflake embossed background.  I sanded it lightly so the white core of the CTMH cs would show through.  The Cranberry strip of cs was stamped with a newspaper stamp from Stampers Anonymous.
