Hello! I have an easy card using the “Friends are like Seashells” stamp set and dies. They come from the Sand and Sea Suite on pages 40-42. Without a doubt, it is one of my favourite Suites. The patterned paper is gorgeous and the specialty Pearlescent papers in the suite make the shells take on […]
