Here is a card that I made using the Seaside stamp set from Stampin' Up! This set is has all shells in it and I love it for scrapbooking, making cards and gift items. I recently used it to make wedding favors, a guest book for the wedding and this card to match the theme of the wedding for my friend and co-worker, Janice.
The shell was stamped in Chocolate Chip Craft ink and embossed with Crystal Clear Embossing Powder. I colored the images in with marker and then cut out the top half of one of the shels and attached it to the other image using Dimensionals to give it more of a 3-D effect.
The background on the Ballet Blue cardstock is stamped with the Canvas Background stamp in Ballet Blue ink. I used the ticket corner punch (one of my favorite punches) to punch all the layers of the card. I also sponged the Ballet Blue layers of cardstock to give them a little dimension as well. The ribbon is white taffeta and I also added three Ballet Blue brads to the top layer to help accentuate the focal point of the card.
Stay tuned tomorrow for a photo of the wedding favors!

Great wedding favors and a beautiful card to boot, Lynn! I love that seashell image!
