Sea Turtles

This card was made using the Sea Turtle stamp set and card was inspired by a card that was on Pinterest, unfortunately the artist did not sign or leave a watermark on the card. 

The card starts with a Coastal Cabana cardstock card base.

The Basic White cardstock top panel was cut out in the middle using two sizes of the Layering Diorama Dies. The smaller diorama was adhered directly onto the Coastal Cabana card base. The fish were stamped in Night of Navy ink using the fish stamp from the Sea Turtle stamp set.

The larger card front panel was embossed using the Seabed 3D Embossing folder, which is retired.  Once embossed the panel was adhered to the card base using Stampin' Dimensionals.

Highland Heather and Fresh Freesia cardstock were used to make the "sea grass". Both pieces of cardstock were embossed using the Seashells 3D Embossing folder and then cut out using the coordinating Seaside Seashells dies. Wink of Stella was added to each of the sea grass pieces before they were adhered to the card using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

The Sea Turtle stamp is a two-step stamp by using both sides of the same stamp.  The first stamp was done with the detailed side of the stamp and Shaded Spruce ink onto Basic White cardstock.  For the second stamp, Mint Macaron ink was used on the smooth side or back of the Sea Turtle stamp.  The Sea Turtle stamp is a photopolymer stamp so it is fairly easy to line up with the already stamped image.  The Sea Turtles were fussy cut and then adhered onto the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals.
Here is a look at the card from the side to help you see all of the dimensions of the card.

The sentiment is from the Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set and has been stamped onto Basic White cardstock using Coastal Cabana ink.

Flat Adhesive Backed Pearls were added randomly to the card front for accent.
The inside of the card has a Basic White cardstock panel.

The inside panel has been stamped across the bottom with the sand and shell stamp from the Seaside Bay stamp set in Crumb Cake ink.
