All three Clubs of the Month rolled into one card…simple but with some hidden tricks!
With this card I tried to capture the waves coming onto shore over the sand.
- Emboss a light blue, deeper blue, and sandy parchiment paper with the wavy Embossing folder of the month.
- On the light blue, I sanded the raised edges to show the white core of the paper.
- I cut the deep blue and the parchment paper pieces to create a 3.75″x 5″ piece of paper when one third is the sand and two thirds is the water and I taped them together on the back.
- The light blue piece was cut differently in pattern to the water and sand so it would stand out a bit differently. Then I sanded the raised portions of the light blue paper with a piece of sandpaper from my garage. This brought out the white core of the paper. Cut at a different angle than the other embossed pieces I glued that on top of the sand and water, thus creating the thinner layer of water rushing over the sand.
- To add some gimmer and shine I added some white embossing power and some Altenew Transluscent Pearl embossing powder over some of the deeper blue, the lighter blue, and some of the sand. This gave it a glimmery effect as if it is wet.
- For some added texture I mounted with foam tape over goldish and blue glitter paper then mounted it all on the card base.
- The wax seal was done with blue wax and then a gold uniball pen to color in the sun and rays.
- The sentiment is done in Satin Pewter and the June 2024 Glimmer of the month sentiments.
Overall, this is a simple card in looks creating a wonderful relaxing theme to make the recipient feel the wind and waves on their feet and breathing in the smell of the sea. Can you feel it? Can you smell it? Isn’t it so relaxing?!!!
