Hi friends! Sophie here and I am thrilled to be wrapping up our Stencil Week celebration with a fun, summer inspired card featuring the Waves Stencil. Let’s dive in!

We are finally getting some spring weather in my neck of the woods which is making me itch for summer weather so I pulled out some fun summer supplies from last year to bring some sunshine to my craft room. 

I started out with some light blue cardstock that I cut using the Eyelet Rectangles Dies – a much loved staple in my craft room. I masked off the edges and used the Waves Stencil to add a light wash of blue ink in the background – I love using tone on tone stenciling because it adds texture and interest without becoming overwhelming. 

For the images on this card I used the Seashells Stamps and Dies for the fun shell images. I did very simple coloring with my Copic markers – most of the images I actually only used one marker but did a few extra layers on top to add some light shading to areas. Here are the markers I used!

Sanddollar: E42, E41
Starfish: Y32
Coral: YG00
Purple Shell: V01
Blue Shell: G000
Pink Shell: R00

I finished off this card with a sentiment from the same Seashell set and used a kraft colored card base. I really love how Paulina always gives us coordinating dies for the sentiments – I love to pop them up on my cards with some dimension to really draw the eye in!

To finish things off I couldn’t resist adding some of my favorite Sparkling Clear Confetti. The perfect accents to any card! I hope you enjoyed and I hope you’re getting some spring weather wherever you are.

See you next time!
