I hope everyone is having a sunny day even if it is raining where you are, as it is here in Georgia today.  You can always have a happy day and that will make  sunshine in your heart and give you a happy spirit. Give someone your sunny friendly smile today, it maybe the only smile they see the entire day and it will help brighten their rather dreary day.  Have a blessed day where ever you maybe and do.

The card I am sharing today is from the Jan – April 2023 Mini Catalog and it carries over to the new 2023-2024 Annual Catalog coming May 2, 2023.  I have not shared this stamp set very much, so it is good it is carrying over and I will be able to use it until April 30, 2024.

I am entering Tuesday Morning Sketches for this card.  Come join the fun challenges are always fun to do.

I started with a Pool Party card stock card base.  I added a panel of By The Bay Designer Series Paper matted to a panel of Night of Navy card stock.  I adhered this to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I cut a strip of By The Bay Designer Series Paper 1-1/2″ x 5″ matting on Night of Navy card stock.  I adhered this across the card front.

I cut a piece of By the Bay Designer Series for the art piece matting on Night of Navy card stock.  I stamped birds from Stampin’ Up! Lets Set Sail stamp set in the upper right corner using Night of Navy ink.  I adhered this piece to the card front positioning it over the banner.  To this piece I added birds that were either fussy cut from By The Bay Designer Series Paper or stamped in Night of Navy ink using a stamp from Stampin’ Up! Seaside Bay stamp set.  These birds are popped on the bottom of the art panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals.  Seashells are also fussy cut and popped on the card front. A greeting from Stampin’ Up! On The Farm stamp set is stamped in Night of Navy ink in the left corner.  Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels are popped around the card front.  This finishes the card front, now on to creating the inside panel to write a note or sentiment.

A panel of By The Bay Designer Series Paper is matted on Night of Navy card stock after having seashells and a bird stamp across the bottom of the panel.  The shells are stamped in Crumb Cake ink and the bird is stamped in Night of Navy ink. Even with the design on the panel it is light enough to write a message.  This finishes the inside of the card, now on to making sure there is no naked envelope.

A Basic White Medium Envelope gets a piece of By The Bay Designer Series Paper applied to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you took the time to linger and look at my other blog post and cards and that you will join me on my stamping journey as I share my cards with you each day. My hope and wish are that you will be inspired to create amazing creations yourself. Feel free to CAS(E) any card. Any questions you may have, you know you can always contact me. Have a blessed day!
