Hello and welcome to the Crafty Challenge Blog Hop where we are sharing projects inspired by a dice roll giving us masking, standard vertical, pearl, for you and black and white. I have made my monochromatic shell card using the Shell Collecting stamp set.
Colours used to make this card are:
I created the pop out monochromatic shell card using the following supplies:
Thick Basic White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” on the long side
Basic Black card – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½”
Scrap Basic White panel bigger than 5¼” by 3½”
I cut a circle, centrally in the upper half of the larger, scrap piece of Basic White card. I placed the negative piece over the 5¼” by 3½” panel of Basic White card and secured it in place with a little washi tape. I used a Blending Brush to add a little Memento Tuxedo Black ink to the exposed circle. The masking panel was then removed.

I stamped the largest shell, overlapping the inked circle with the same Memento Tuxedo Black ink. The same image was then stamped onto a Post It Note and fussy cut out. I then used it to mask off the stamped shell.

With the mask in place, I stamped the two smaller shells in the same black ink. The mask was then removed.

I chose a sentiment from the Fragrant Layers stamp set, masked off the words I didn’t want with washi tape. The words I did want were then inked with the Black ink, the washi tape was removed and words stamped onto the circle.

A trio of Iridescent Pearls finished the card.
