Waves Of Inspiration - A Cased Card

 Hi Friends!

I received this card in a swap with my Silver Sisters. We are a Canada wide group of friends and fellow demonstrators. We support, encourage, and share everything and it's wonderful to have a non-judgemental group of amazing women that have my back!

This card is by the talented Barb Stewart, and it is a big hit.

I shared pictures a while ago and was asked to do a live demonstration on how to create this card.

I would love it if you would visit the video below to see how to re-create your own.

It uses the now retired waves designer paper in the background, but you could use any designer paper, or stamp background yourself.

It also uses the now retired waves foil and embellishments. But, you got it, use what you have and create this card for any occasion.

Please watch the video below to see how I created it. If you enjoy the video, please consider subscribing to my YouTube Channel so you don't miss any of my videos, tutorials and Live Stamping. Once you have subscribed, click on the bell icon to get notification when I add to my channel.

Swap Cards - A Great Way To Get Inspiration!

 Hi Friends!

Today's card was created by Diane Inkster for a recent Waves Of The Ocean swap we participated in.

I love, love, love the circle behind the whale. It's called the Floating Technique and I am going to use this soon in a card!

Diane used the Whale Done stamp set and coordinating Whale punch along with the Waves Dies and the so, so, so pretty Blue Foils.  The background (Coastal Cabana) is embossed with the Textured Textiles embossing folder.

Hello, Mr Whale, I am glad you swam into my craft room today!

How To Use Granny Apple Green In A Waves Of The Ocean Card!

 Hi Friends!

Today's card uses the amazing Waves Of The Ocean Collection....

I created this card for a Virtual Swap I was in recently. The Waves Of The Ocean designer paper has Granny Apple Green in it, and I wondered how I could incorporate that in a card.

Well I used it for one of the layers of the wave, as well as the top of the palm trees from the Timeless Tropical stamp set and coordinating dies.

I think it looks great!

Have a great day.

Oceanfront Meets Sailing Home And Waves Of The Ocean Designer Paper

 Hi Friends!

Today I have a card for you that is makes my heart sing!

I paired the Sailing Home stamp set an coordinating Smooth Sailing dies with the Oceanfront stamp set for a beautiful ocean scene card.

We used to own sailboats, and I miss sailing so much. But it was not to be once we got busy with life and could not spend as much time sailing as we used to. Boats deteriorate very quickly when they just sit. So we made the heartbreaking decision to sell our beloved Maraya. The people we sold her to were going to enjoy it every bit as much as we did.

Here's a picture of Maraya. I can smell the ocean and close my eyes and feel the gentle rocking of the boat. Yes I do miss her, a lot. But time has moved on and we now have Grand Children that we want to spend time with.

Here's the recipe to recreate my card as shown above:

Night of Navy 11 x 4-1/4

Basic White 5-1/4 x 4 (x 2 pieces)

                     2-1/4 x 4 (bits and birds)

                     1 x 3 (sentiment)

Waves Of The Ocean designer paper 5-1/4 x 4

Waves Basic Jewels

Waves Dies

Smooth Sailing Dies

Wink of Stella

Stamp sets: Oceafront, Sailing Home, Blossoms In Bloom

Ink:  Misty Moonlight, Balmy Blue, Basic Gray, Mossy Meadow, Soft Suede, Crumb Cake

Blends: Dark Real Red, Dark Balmy Blue, Light Misty Moonlight, 500, Dark Daffodil Delight, Light Smoky Slate

Thanks for visiting today. I hope you have a wonderful day.
