Hey there, crafty crew — it’s Arsenia here, and I’ve got a splash of sneak peeks to share using some seriously adorable new goodies: the new Seashells stamp set, Seashell Wreath stamp set, and Shoreline Border Dies. I created two ocean-inspired cards, and guess what? No alcohol markers in sight! Yep, I’m showing you how to make a big, colorful impact without picking up a single coloring pen.

I kept things bold and bright using just four dye ink colors — proof that less can definitely be more. Let’s dive right into the fun!

For this beauty, I created a dreamy faux watercolor effect — and it was so fun! I used watercolor paper, spritzed my dye-inked stamp images with water, then let the transformation happen. A few brush strokes here, a second stamp there, and boom — a soft, flowy look perfect for seashells. I used both new Seashells stamp set and Seashell Wreath stamp set! Once everything was die cut, it was time to build the background.

Enter: the gorgeous new Layered Coral Stencil Set. I inked it up using the same bold color combo, then layered it up with Coastal cardstock for some extra pop. A touch of vellum, using the Wonky Rectangles Dies, helped tone it down so my seashells could shine. I used a sentiment from Friend Greeting stamp set with coordinating dies and for a sub sentiment I used the new Sentiment Strips: Summer Stamp Set with the Sentiment Strip Dies!  Add in some white gel pen highlights, a sprinkle of glittery “bubbles” (hello, Birthday Cake Pops and Party Flags Dies), and a little whimsical bow for good measure — ta-da! Ocean beauty!

Ready for another set?
This time, I heat embossed the seashells from the Seashells Stamp Set, on colorful cardstock and gave them a little faux watercolor treatment with matching dye inks and a blending pen — subtle, soft depth that looks so dreamy! I die cut everything with the coordinating dies, added some gel pen sparkle, and used the Shoreline Borders Dies to create a wave out of patterned paper. (There are four shoreline styles in the set — so many possibilities!)

For the background, I went with the new Layered Seashell stencils and framed everything with my beloved Wonky Stitched Rectangles. Add in a sweet sentiment from the new Seashells stamp set and more glittery bubbles, plus a shimmery silver bow, and this card was ready to ride the tide.

Both of these cards are all about bold color, playful texture, and just enough sparkle to make a splash. I hope these ideas inspire you to get creative with your stash — even without traditional coloring!
