Hi, friends! Today I’m sharing a seashell-inspired card featuring some gorgeous summer products from Pretty Pink Posh’s summer release! This card is all about soft pastel rainbows and a bit of shimmer—perfect for a bright, beachy vibe. I combined the Seashells Stamp Set and Coordinating Dies, the Stitched Seashells Dies, and the Layered Seashells Stencils to bring this design to life. I started by cutting the largest Stitched Torn Rectangle Die and several Stitched Seashells from light speckled kraft cardstock. I ink blended each shell in a soft rainbow of Distress Oxides: Tattered Rose, Dried Marigold, Twisted Citron, Salvaged Patina, and Shaded Lilac. To add shimmer, I spritzed each shell with Distress Spritzes in coordinating colors and set them aside to dry.

For the background, I used the Layered Seashells Stencils to add a subtle tone-on-tone pattern with Antique Linen Distress Oxide and finished it with Golden Hour Solar Paste for extra texture and shine. I heat embossed the "You Are Spe-shell" sentiment in a deep brown ink for contrast and layered it beneath my rainbow shell arrangement. I adhered the stenciled panel to a top-folding A2 card base and popped up the shells with foam adhesive to create dimension. To finish, I added a sprinkle of Rainbow Shimmer Confetti across the card in a soft rainbow pattern to perfectly complement the shells. This card is such a fun celebration of summer, seashells, and shimmer! I love how the pastel colors and sparkly accents came together to make this design shine.
