For this Thursday’s Double Feature I created two cards with Waves of the Ocean Collection. The awesome Waves of Inspiration Bundle is a sneak peek of the upcoming 2022-2023 Annual Catalog. The Waves of the Ocean 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper pack, Blue Foils 12″ x 12″ Specialty Paper pack , and the Rhinestone Waves Basic Jewels in the Collection are only available for a limited time (May 2nd) or while supplies last. I paired the Waves of the Collection with the Paradise Palms bundle to create my cards. You can watch my Facebook Live replay of these cards on my Facebook page here or on my YouTube channel below.

Card One –
Start with a Pacific Point cs card base. Cut a Basic White cs panel and a Waves of the Ocean Designer Series Paper panel. Stamp the wave image from the Waves of Inspiration stamp set (I used my Stamparatus) on Basic White cs in Pacific Pointe ink and then use paper snips to fussy cut out the image. Glue the wave to the DSP panel. Cut a piece of Night of Navy Foil Specialty paper (2 1/2″ x 5 1/2″) and apply a matching piece of the Adhesive Sheet (2 1/2″ x 5 1/2″) to the back of the foil. Die cut out a wave (with the straight edge) from the adhesive backed foil with the Waves dies. Die cut out a Basic White cs wave (with the curve edge) with the Waves dies. You can also add an adhesive sheet to the Basic White cs panel- in the video I used glue instead. Add the Night of Navy foil wave layer onto the stamped wave. Add the Basic White cs wave layer over the foil wave layer (with glue or an applied adhesive sheet). Glue the DSP layer to the Basic White cs layer and then glue them to the card base.
Die cut a Basic White cs circle label with the Tasteful Labels dies. Stamp the sentiment from Paradise Palms stamp set in Pacific Pointe ink on the label. Add So Saffron ink to the label with a blending brush. Die cut out Basic White cs clouds and Smoky Slate cs seagulls with the Waves dies.
Use glue and Stampin’ Dimensionals to add the clouds, sentiment label, and seagulls to the top right of the card front. Add Rhinestone Waves Basic Jewels to the card front.
Add a Basic White cs inside panel to write your message. Stamp the sentiment from the Paradise Palms stamp set in Pacific Pointe ink. Stamp seagulls from the Waves of Inspiration stamp set in Smoky Slate ink and add a strip of DSP to the inside panel & back of the card to pull the theme through.

Card Two –
Start with a Coastal Cabana cs card base. Cut a Petal Pink cs panel and a Wave of the Ocean DSP panel. Stamp the wave image from the Waves of Inspiration stamp set (I used my Stamparatus) on Basic White cs in Coastal Cabana ink and then use paper snips to fussy cut out the image. Glue the wave to the DSP panel. Cut a piece of Coastal Cabana Foil Specialty paper (2 1/2″ x 5 1/2″) and apply a matching piece of the Adhesive Sheet (2 1/2″ x 5 1/2″) to the back of the foil. Die cut out a wave (with the straight edge) from the adhesive backed foil with the Waves dies. Add the wave foil layer over the stamped wave image. Use paper snips to cut off the excess stamped wave Basic White cs & foil wave layer so they are flush with the DSP panel.
Die cut out two Coastal Cabana cs palms with the Palms dies. Add the die cut palm trees with glue to the DSP and then snip off the excess. Glue the DSP panel to the Petal Pink cs panel and then glue the panels to the card base.
Die cut out a Basic White cs circle label and a Vellum cs larger circle label with the Tasteful Labels dies. Die cut out Basic White cs clouds with the Waves dies. Glue the clouds to the top left side of the card front. Stamp the sentiment from the Paradise Palms stamp set in Coastal Cabana ink on the Basic White cs circle label. Add So Saffron ink to the stamped circle label with a blending brush. Use glue to attach the sentiment circle label to the Vellum cs circle label layer. Add the circle labels to the card front overlapping the die cut clouds. Add Rhinestone Waves Basic Jewels to the card front and Wink of Stella to the stamped wave for sparkle.
Add a Basic White cs inside panel to write your message. Stamp the sentiment from the Paradise Palms stamp set in Coastal Cabana ink. Add a strip of DSP to the inside panel & back of the card to pull the theme through.
