Hello everyone.
Today is the launch of the Simon Says Stamp Rainbows release. I have a video making a beach inspired card but without using any actual beach themed products. With summer coming we all want to feel the cool water vibes of the beach. This card helps you do just that. In this video I used the NEW You Are Enough die set and the Vine Canopy 3D embossing folder to create this card.

Background:
I broke out my Ranger Distress Inks to blend this panel. The combination is gorgeous. I used Chipped Sapphire, Peacock Feathers, and Cracked Pistachio. I was very liberal with the Chipped Sapphire. I loved the way the darker blue mixed with the lighter shades.
I then spritzed my panel with water to create the water droplet effect to the background. With the water freshly dampening the paper, I took the opportunity to run the panel through my machine with the Vine Canopy embossing folder. The slight dampness helps enhance the 3D embossing folder's effect on this paper.
Sentiment:
The "you are enough" sentiment is another NEW product being released this month. I cut the shadow piece from plain heavy weight white cardstock and the word die was cut from a deep navy color. I like the way the navy brings out the darker color in the background. I cut this word die four times and layered it together using liquid adhesive.
Assembly:
I popped up the background panel onto an A2 size side folding landscape orientation card base using craft foam and tear tape adhesive. The sentiment was adhered flat to the card panel using the same liquid adhesive.
Embellishment:
I added a few drops of liquid adhesive around the sentiment in order to adorn my card with a few water droplet embellishments.
I hope you have enjoyed making a card with me today. Make sure you (CLICK HERE!) to visit Simon Says Stamp and to check out their NEW Rainbows release.
