Friendly Fins Card to Kick off Summer
Jun 16, 2024
Stampin' Up! Friendly Fins dolphin card in blues with coral, seaweed and fish and a Make a Splash sentiment

When I saw the Friendly Fins Bundle in the catalog, I knew it had to be part of my collection! I love anything revolving around water and I knew these adorable stamps and dies would create many aquatic scenes. And while I tend to avoid “scene” cards, the amazing coral element insists upon it!

I love that this is a two-step stamping set – you stamp the outline of the elements, then “color them in” by stamping over with the solid stamp. You could also simply color them in, but that’s not nearly as much fun, IMO!

I made the featured card during my Quick Class #82 this week and I share some tips on how to use the stamps and dies both together and separately. Please check it out!
