I chose to make a sea shell card! We visit friends at their cottage each summer and I wanted a Thank You card for their gracious hospitality! Can't you just sense the beach and all the terrific sights, sounds, and smells?

I used an image from JustRite's By the Sea set. All JustRite products are 20% off in The Stamp Simply Store through Monday morning, 8 a.m. EST, June 14. Prices reflected on the Store page are the full price. Your discount will be reflected on your invoice. Now is the time to stock up! I stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black and Copic colored. Patterned paper is from the Cappella Basic Grey paper pad in the kit!

A peek of the card inside! I used my Spellbinders Classic Scalloped Border Petites and layered more of the Cappella papers. The sentiment image is from a Rubber Soul/Wordsworth clear stamp set, I'm So Glad found in The Stamp Simply Store and can be seen on this page.
