Happy Monday, y’all! If you have to go to work today you might want to go ahead and get up and get dressed! If not – whoo-hoo!
At OnStage last week – I got a most wunnermus pack of NEW paper – it’s called the Scenic Coast Specialty DSP and it is simply stunning! I made a card with it for you today – and added a sentiment from the also-new Sending Salutations stamp set. These are both coming soon in the new May-Aug 2026 Catalog. Available right now, though, is the Soft Waves 3D Embossing Folder and the Shell Collecting stamp set that I used to complete my ocean-y theme. Take a look-see:
The layout for this one was inspired by the Freshly Made Sketches challenge this week.
I did a quick video on how to make this card – which is posted on Instagram. If you’d like to give that a watch – click here!
I started by using two of the Stylish Shapes circle dies – the second and third from the smallest – to cut out four circles from a piece of the new Scenic Coast Specialty DSP (available on 5 May).
Y’all – this paper is simply amazing. The primary side has stylized ocean sunsets and sunrises – accented with beautiful silvery foil (it truly looks like the sun reflecting off the ocean!). Yeah – this picture doesn’t even do it justice – you’ll just need to get a pack for yourself to see!
I laid out the circles on my 3 7/8″ x 5 1/8″ piece of Basic White cardstock and used them as a guide to stamp two starfish from the Shell Collecting stamp set. This is a reversible set – available now in the Jan-Apr 2026 Mini Catalog.
I stamped the first, detailed, side in Pretty in Pink ink. Then I cleaned the stamp and turned it over on the block. I inked it in Pretty In Pink – stamped it off once and stamped over the first image (as the fill).
I embossed the panel in the Soft Waves 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to a Strawberry Slush mat using Liquid Glue.
Then I adhered the DSP circles with Liquid Glue.
On a piece of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the Sending Salutations sentiment (available on 5 May) in Blueberry Bushel ink.
Using the second-from-smallest Stylish Shapes circle die, I cut out the sentiment.
Using Stampin’ Seal on the back of the sentiment, I adhered a loop-d-loop of Strawberry Slush 3/8″ Faux Linen Ribbon.
Then I adhered the sentiment to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I added seven clear sequins from the new Sunset Sparkle Sequins (available on 5 May) and the card front was done!
For the inside, I cut a 3/4″ strip from the left side of the same piece of Sunset Coast Specialty DSP from which I’d cut the circles. I adhered it to the left side of a 4″ x 5 1/4″ piece of Basic White cardstock and trimmed the excess with scissors. Then I stamped a second Sending Salutations sentiment in Blueberry Bushel and added another clear Sunset Sparkle Sequin.
I used Liquid Glue to adhere the panel to the inside of the Thick Basic White card base, popped the card front on with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card was done.
My Basic White Medium Envelope got the Shell Collecting starfish in Pretty in Pink and stamped-off-once Pretty in Pink on the front…
…and more of that amazeballs Scenic Coast Specialty DSP on the envelope flap. THERE – now you can get a good look at how gorgeous that DSP is!
Et Voila! Well – if you didn’t stop reading to go add the Scenic Coast Specialty DSP to your gotta-have-it list for 5 May then…go do it right now! And – while you’re at it – add the Sending Salutations stamp set, too – it’s got so many wonderful sentiments for so many occasions – you ARE going to want it!! The Shell Collecting set – and Soft Waves 3D Embossing Folder – are both available right now. So – take advantage of my Double Peppermints Ordering Special and get them on the way!
I hope you like! 🙂

I think she’s figuring they can’t see her if she sits back away from the door.
But SHE can see THEM! 😉
Sadly – they have NO respect for her ferocity! None, I tell ya!
