Hello and welcome to the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop where we are sharing projects inspired by a sketch and colour challenge. I have used the Oceanfront stamp set and Seaside Dies to create my card.
Colour combo used in this card
To recreate the By the sea card, you will need:
Blueberry Bushel card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Daffodil Delight card – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾”
Scrap Daffodil Delight, Calypso Coral & Granny Apple Green
Using 2nd generation Blueberry Bushel ink, I stamped the ‘sky’. The sea was then stamped in 2nd generation Coastal Cabana ink.

Using my Mini Cut & Emboss Machine, and the Seaside Dies I die cut the large and small tufts of grasses and adhered them to the stamped panel with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I die cut the small scallop shells from scrap Calypso Coral and Daffodil Delight card. These were then added to the decorated panel.

The sentiment from the Sending Smiles stamp set was stamped along the bottom in Crumb Cake ink. The panel was then glued to the Daffodil Delight layer and then added to the Blueberry Bushel card base.
