So Many Shells

and Hardwood

This is the card that Retha Fulp offered at our last Shoe Box Swap  (SBS) and I am excited to share it with you.  She is so creative, glad that she participates in our Bi-Monthly SBS events, attends my Creative Therapy classes, and is a member of my Hostess Club😊.

Recipe: 

• The base is an 8 1/2 x 5 1/2  piece of Tranquil Tide scored at 4 1/4.  
• The Soft Sky layer is 5 1/4 x 4.
• The Whisper White layer is 5 x 3 3/4, stamped with Smoky Slate ink and the Hardwood background stamp, then adhered to the Soft Sky layer. 
• The narrow piece of Tranquil Tide is 5 1/4 x 2 1/8.  The 5 1/4 x 1 7/8 piece of Smoky Slate is stamped with Basic Gray Archival ink, and the Hardwood Stamp, then sponged with Tranquil Tide ink.  Both of these pieces are glued to the two card front pieces with snail adhesive.
• Double strands of Linen Thread are tied and looped around the back of the top two layers then all are glued to the card base.
• The three Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies are adhered together with snail adhesive and popped up with dimensionals.
• The shells are stamped with Tranquil Tide and Soft Sky ink on Whisper White card stock, and cut out with SU's paper snips, (best scissors around, just sayin'). 
• The three basic pearls are colored with a gray Sharpie, then glued to the card front.
• Don't forget to decorate your envelope.
• All done!!!
