This release is so fun to play with, I couldn’t just stop at one card!! I made a total of 3 cards featuring one of my favorite release products the Layered Peninsula Stencil.

All three cards use the stencil in differing ways let me walk you through each of them!

The Shell Yeah slimline card features the waves from the Layered Peninsula Stencil inked in a rainbow color palette using Ink On 3 Atelier inks–then I offset the stencil slightly and used Nuvo Glimmer Paste in Moonstone to make it shimmer even more!

My sentiment was die cut using the new (and definitley my new favorite alpha!!) Modern Embossed Alphabet dies. The embossed edging on the letters oozes classy sophistication in my book! LOVE!! My Foil and Cut Seashell finished off the card–all that shine!!! The card panel was trimmed and mounted onto a black Dainty Scallop slimline panel before adhering to a white card base.

The Happy Birthday Slimline card was actually filmed and will be on my Youtube channel as soon as I am well enough to do my voice over (sorry!! I managed to catch a bug the youngest brought home! ). I used the Layered Peninsula stencil again–creating two sets of boulders by flipping the stencil over for a mirrored image. The negative stencil pieces included with the stencil made masking the boulders a breeze when I went to ink my ocean!

I also staggered the waves again on this card, but used Distress Paste in Glossy to add some texture and shine. My sentiment was a combination of the Modern Embossed Alphabet dies and the new Swirly Birthday Slimline Sentiment. I love the size of the birthday die and how it can fill a slimline card front so nicely!

Lastly we have the Seas the Day card. I started with a A7 Modern Embossed die cut panel and added two boulders (once again flipping the stencil to mirror image the boulder) and added the waves to the bottom half of the card using the Layered Peninsula Stencil. I grabbed my well-used Puffy Clouds Stencil to add some interest to my sky. I die cut a smaller rectangle using the Nested A7 Modern Embossed dies again out of vellum to ground my die cut sentiment–once again die cut from the Modern Embossed Alphabet dies. I finished off the card with some beautiful Rainbow Fish Baubles under the sentiment.

Which is your favorite?? I love how different each card looks, regardless of similar supplies!!
