Happy Monday! It’s time for our Create with Connie and Mary Inspiration Monday challenge! Again, isn’t this GORGEOUS plate of seashell cookies a wonderful inspiration? Of course, just had to use my Friends are Like Seashells stamp set and dies!

FRIENDS ARE LIKE SEASHELLS
That Pearlescent Paper and Seashells Embossing Folder are also just beautiful! I’m not sure the photo of my card does them justice…it shimmers with SO much detail!

Stampin’ Details:
-
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Coastal Cobana cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- A 1-1/4 x 5-1/4 strip of Sand & Sea Designer Paper was added to the left side.
- A 3 x 4 piece of Pearlescent Specialty Paper was embossed with the Seashells Embossing Folder and added to the front.
- The greeting was stamped on a 2-1/2 x 3-1/4 piece of Basic White with Coastal Cabana Ink and cut with the Stitched Shapes Oval. It was added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The sand dollar was stamped with Blushing Bride Ink on Basic White, the starfish with Coastal Cabana Ink on Coastal Cabana cardstock and the small shell with Blushing Bride Ink on Blushing Bride cardstock. They were cut with the Seaside Seashells Dies and added on front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Two Pastel Pearls were added next to the greeting for a little bling!
- A little Wink of Stella was added to the seashells.
