Happy weekend, crafty friends!! I’m sharing my final card today as a June guest designer for Hero Arts!! I’m featuring the June 2025 Stamp & Cut of the Month: Seashells today!!

I started by stamping the June 2025 Stamp & Cut of the Month: Seashells onto white cardstock using no-line coloring ink. I colored them with Copic markers, added highlights with a white gel pen, then cut them out with the coordinating dies.

For the background, I blended Distress Oxide Inks onto a panel of white cardstock using blending brushes. For the sand area, I used Vintage Photo and Antique Linen, blending it out to white in the center of the panel. I used Salvaged Patina and Peacock Feathers for the sea. The panel was splattered with clean water and picked up with a paper towel. It was then splattered with gold metallic watercolor paint and diluted white bleed-proof ink. Once dry, the panel was trimmed slightly and adhered to a white A2 card base. The shells were arranged and adhered using liquid glue.

The sentiment is also included in the June 2025 Stamp & Cut of the Month: Seashells. It was stamped onto white cardstock using Versamark ink and embossed with gold embossing powder. After cutting it out with the coordinating die, it was popped up with foam tape. I sprinkled on some gold confetti to tie in the gold splatter and sentiment and finish off the card.

That’s it for me today!! Thanks so much for dropping by!!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!!
