Today’s card is another one from my February Stamp Club gathering on Monday. The Seaside Seashells Dies, Seashells 3D Embossing Folder, and Pearlescent Specialty Paper are the real stars of this card. Just look at the texture on the pearlescent shells. Isn’t it beautiful? I also used the Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set and Sand & Sea Designer Series Paper from the same Sand & Sea Suite Collection.
