Friends are Like Seashells - Pearlized and Embossed Shells

On Sunday, I taught my club members how to take any cardstock and add Frost White Shimmer Paint to it using a Blending Brush to make it look like Pearlescent Paper.  After it's dry, insert it into the Seashells 3D Embossing Folder.  Here are my complete instructions to share with you:


 

1.     The base of the card is Bermuda Bay cardstock cut at 5-1/2” x 8-1/2” and scored at 4-1/4” in the middle.

2.    The second layer is Bermuda Bay cardstock cut at 4” x 5-1/4”.  Shake the Frost White Shimmery Paint bottle and drop a dime-size amount on the clear block.  Take the Blending Brush and swirl the paint on the cardstock.  Let dry!

3.    Once dry, insert into the Seashells Embossing Folder and run it through the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine using Platform 1 and 4.

4.    Cut the Shimmer White cardstock at 1-1/2 x 4”.  Ink up the sentiment with Midnight Moonlight ink and stamp on the left side of the Shimmery White cardstock.

5.    Cut the Midnight Moonlight cardstock at 1-3/4” x 4”.  Cut the Bermuda Bay cardstock at 2” x 4”. Layer all the pieces together with Adhesive.  You may need to trim off the edges if too long.

6.    Ink up the shell stamp with Midnight Moonlight ink and stamp on 2-1/4” x 3” Shimmer White cardstock. Color in the shell with Blender Pen.  Then use the Dark Pool Party to color in the dark area and the Light Pool Party to color in the light areas but leaving a little bit of white.

7.    Die-cut with the Seaside Seashells Die with Plate 1, 2, and both 3’s.  Trim it out with the Paper Snips.  Then insert it into the Seashells Embossing Folder using Plate 1 and 4.  Attach with Dimensionals to the right side of the sentiment. 

8.    Ink up the starfish stamp with Midnight Moonlight ink and stamp on the 1-1/2” x 2” Shimmer White cardstock.  Die-cut with the starfish die in the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine.  Add with a Dimensional to the right of the shell stamp.

9.    Add Wink of Stella to the both shells.
