Your friends will feel in the pink when you send them this seashell friendship card, adorned with pink seashells. It’s Sunday, and time to play with The Paper Players!
This week, Anne Marie is hosting our monthly sketch challenge. I am so in love with all the layers. I used it to showcase the Friends Are Like Seashells bundle and Sea and Sand designer series paper. Sadly, it also showcases two retiring embossing folders – Dainty Diamonds and Subtle. If you want these folders, I would strongly encourage you to order right away. The retiring products are only available while supplies last!!! (Be sure to check out the Retiring List later in this post.)

The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips
Blushing Bride and retiring Rococo Rose are two pinks which look striking against Basic White cardstock. The Rococo Rose shells have a subtle shimmer, thanks to Wink of Stella, as does the seaweed, trimmed from the larger Seaside Seashell die. The retiring Dainty Diamonds 3D embossing folder was used to add interest to the horizontal strip of paper. As a bonus, the centers of the diamonds are the perfect place to put a pearl.
