Beside the Seaside with Gemma

Hello, Gemma here today to share a card using the lovely Seaside Girls stamp set from Hello Bluebird.

I created a sunset scene with distress oxide inks in tattered rose, picked raspberry and dried marigold. The sea is a blend of tumbled glass and peacock feathers, and the sand is tattered rose.

For the birds in the sky, I stamped them after blending the sky so used a small paintbrush and a little water to remove the distress ink.

I layered the scene over a piece of blue card to get a border on the long edges, then adhered them to my card base. I then stamped a sentiment from the Seaside Girls stamp set underneath.

I copic coloured lots of images from the Seaside Girls stamp set, then die cut them with the coordinating dies. I adhered them to the card with either liquid glue or foam tape, to give some dimension to my scene.

I love the seagull copying the girl with the shell! This is such a sweet stamp set for summer cards.

Have a lovely day,
Gemma
