Seashell Wishes Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing my Seashell Wishes Card as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Conie Fong Art & Design using the beautiful new release Seashell Rosealea. 

The Details of My Card

When I saw the new release for Conie Fong, I couldn’t wait to get started colouring her, especially that hair! So gorgeous! So, I used my Copic markers to colour her up. I decided to go with natural tones for the shells since I wanted her to shine. A scattering of the coloured blue shells tied in my blue colour scheme from the DSP. 

Once she was coloured, I placed Rosealea onto a Blushing Bride die cut scallop base to help anchor her and distinguish her from the shells DSP.

The DSP was perfect for my cards with its shells in different colours and blue watery sheets! I thought the white shells die against the blue DSP really popped! To add to the dimension of the die cut shells, I used my Embossing Mat to make the details really stand out.

I thought it would be fun to add real shells to my card! So, I used some from the Dollar Store. Tip: use Glossy Accents to create a strong adhesive hold. I also used Glossy accents on the pink pearls in her hair. 

To add an iridescent look, I used a scattering of Flat Adhesive-Backed Pearls and Clear Wink of Stella on the flowers in her hair.

The finishing touch was a stamped die cut sentiment making this a perfect birthday card!
