Welcome to the June Joy of Sets Blog Hop where our theme is ‘Splish Splash’. This is an ideal theme for a sweet seahorse themed card made using the Seaside Notions stamp set and a bit of water colouring. You may have hopped over from the lovely Fiona Whitehead and you are currently visiting Mo Rootes.
To recreate the Seaside Notions card you will need:
Terracotta Tile card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Pacific Point – 4 ¼” by 2 ⅞”
Shimmery White card – 4” by 2⅝”
Whisper White – 5⅜ by 3⅝”
Scrap Shimmery White card stock
The gorgeous seahorse image from the Seaside Notions stamp set was stamped in Terracotta Tile ink onto scrap Shimmery White card and fussy cut using my sharp scissors.

I used the Aqua painter to colour in the Seahorse using Terracotta Tile ink, Mango Melody ink and Gorgeous Grape ink.

When the water coloured panel was dry I stamped the coral image in Pacific point ink and added some speckles using the same ink. The seahorse was mounted onto the panel with Dimensionals. The whole panel was glued to the Pacific Point layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I stamped the coral image along the bottom of the Terracotta Tile card front, the stamped layer was added to the card front with the same liquid glue.

I added a trio of Basic Rhinestones to complete the card.
