Instructions: Card size is 5 1/2 x 7 1/2”. Cut cream cardstock to 11 x 7 1/2”, score and fold at 5 1/2”. Cut two panels from paper collection each being slightly smaller. Glue the largest panel directly onto card base using dries clear glue. On the smaller panel, distress the edges using a paper distresser and adhere onto card using dries clear glue. Cut a third sheet from paper collection slightly smaller, then cut into 1” strips. Distress the edges of these strips, and adhere onto card base using foam squares.
Using the coral paper from collection, die cut using two Intricate swirls dies to create a frame, ink the edges with Carnation Red ink. Cut a beach scene from paper collection to fit into opening of frame. Adhere frame onto background using several layers of foam, then adhere frame onto card base.
Stamp fence onto white cardstock using Frost White ink, emboss with Aged Ivory embossing powder, heat set. Stamp sailboat, canoe x2, seagull x2 and grass x2 using black ink onto white cardstock. Die cut using coordinating dies. Use dauber to color the sand with Tea Rose and Coffee ink, water with French Ultramarine, foliage with Leaf Green, rocks with Jet Black ink, boats with Coffee ink. Finally add Carnation Red and Sunflower ink onto seagull scene. Use Dove Blender along with Jet Black ink to add shadowing to sails and seagull. Shape all the images using Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit.
On cream cardstock, apply Coffee ink onto one word of sentiment stamp, and stamp on cream paper. Clean stamp and stamp, and repeat until you have three separate words stamped on your paper. Die cut words using arrow dies, then shape slightly by wrapping arrow around stylus. Cut a 1/2” strip for post, then adhere arrows on post to represent a sign using foam adhesive.
