When I received my assignment for June, I knew that I wanted to use a shell from Beauty by the Sea on a baptism card.
I love the shell as a symbol of baptism - my church actually has a beautiful light over our baptismal font with crystal seashells and water drops. Since we have infant baptisms, I wanted my card to be elegant enough to commemorate the event, but also frilly with ribbons and polka dots for a baby girl!
- Stamps: Sweet 'n Sassy Beauty by the Sea
- Ink: Versacolor black (to emboss with)
- Paper: Stampin' Up Shimmer White, Blushing Bride, Basic Gray
- Accessories: Silver Pearl Embossing Powder, copics in very light pink and gray on the shell, Nestabilities Lacey Circle (and a regular circle die to cut out the center of the lacey circle), Narrow off-white ribbon, Cuttlebug Embossing Folders: Polka Dots (emboss dots first) and Tiffany (emboss over the dots), misc cross charm
I do love Sweet 'n Sassy stamps and digi stamps and use them regularly! I have many more examples on my blog. Just look in the Labels section in the left hand column and click on "By: Sweet 'n Sassy".
