It’s a new month for our Creatively Simple challenges and here is this month’s theme!

OCEAN FRIENDS
This bundle is one of my favorites in the Mini Catalog! I’ve used a couple of the coordinating DSP patterns on this card. You could also cut out the lobster with the die to make this card even easier to make…but mine is stamped.

- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Thick Basic White c/s, scored at 5-½ and folded
- The 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Summer Splash c/s is embossed with the Soft Waves Embossing Folder and added to the base card.
- 1 2-1/2 x 4-1/2 piece of Calypso Coral check Friends of the Ocean DSP is added to the background towards the right side.
- The 1 x 4 Coral multi print DSP is added across the check pattern towards the bottom.
- Cut large and small seaweed with Die from 1-1/2 x 3 Lemon Lime Twist and adhere to the front over the left side of the DSP.
- On 2-1/4 x 3-3/4 Basic White c/s stamp outline of lobster with Calypso Coral Ink, stamp inside with Pumpkin Pie Ink. Cut with Die and add to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- On 3/4 x 2-1/4 Basic White c/s stamp greeting with Berry Burst Ink, cut end to a point, add to front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Add three Sunny Day Iridescent Dots, 1 small of each color, Summer Splash, Melon Mambo, Pumpkin Pie, to the background.
