Stampin' Pretty PALS Blog Hop - August 2024

 


Hello Friends and thanks for stopping by!  Today is the Stampin' Pretty PALS Blog Hop and our theme this month is: My Summer Vacation.

My summer vacations usually include water, either in the pool or at the beach, so for my Hop project this month, I've used the new Stampin' Up Seaside Wishes Stamp and Die Bundle along with the Country Woods Designer Series Papers to create a card that best represents my Summer holidays.


Included in this bundle is a hybrid embossing folder that fits the sand dollar dies, which enables you to emboss and cut, I love that!  After embossing/die cutting the shells, I very lightly blended Summer Splash, Old Olive and Peach Pie inks over them to highlight the embossed textures.  I've also stamped and die cut 2 starfish, using Crumb Cake ink.


I think the designer series papers give the perfect Coastal vibes.  I've stamped the sentiment using SU Pebbled Path ink and popped on dimensionals, along with the shell cluster.  And of course, I've added a nest of Linen Thread behind the shell cluster and splattered everything with white acrylic paint for added interest.  To finish everything off, I've completed the inside with a few starfish and bubbles. 


There’s more inspiration to show you, so use the lineup below to visit the rest of the Design Team. Please mark your calendars for the blog hop next month (September 11th), when our theme will be "All Creatures Great and Small".  You can find the list of products I've used today, complete with item numbers, at the end of this post. 

Until next time, Happy Crafting!
