It’s Thursday and you know that means it is time for a Create with Connie and Mary Thursday Challenge. This week is a color challenge!

SEASIDE BAY

I love the crab in this stamp set, so just had to buy it!

Stampin’ Details:

The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Thick Basic White cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Coastal Cabana is added on top.
The 2-1/4 x 5-1/4 piece of By the Bay Designer Paper was added across the front.
The greeting from Seaside Bay was stamped with Night of Navy Ink in the lower right corner.
The 2 x 4-1/4 piece of Basic White was stamped along the bottom with stamped off Petal Pink Ink and the sand and seashells image.
It was layered on a 2-1/4 x 4-1/2 piece of Petal Pink cardstock, then added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Two crabs were stamped with Night of Navy Ink on Basic White cardstock and colored with the Light Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends, then cut with the Seaside Bay Dies.
The two grasses were cut from Coastal Cabana cardstock with the Dies and the small scallop shell cut from Petal Pink cardstock. All were layered on the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Two Iridescent Pearls were added to the background and another one to the scallop shell.

I love the coastal feel of this card…it would go in my Florida home perfectly! Go check out what the rest of the Challenge Team did with this challenge over on Create with Connie and Mary
