Waves of Inspiration fun fold card for the Stamping with Friends Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Stamping With Friends Blog Hop where we are sharing fun fold cards. I have chosen to share the Waves of Inspiration corner latch card made for my son’s upcoming birthday.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the waves of inspiration corner latch card, you will need:

Coastal Cabana card base – 9⅛” by 4⅛” scored at 5⅞”
Bermuda Bay card – 5¾”by 4”
Bermuda Bay card – 4” by 3⅛” x 2
Bermuda Bay 4” by ⅛”
Simply Marbleous dsp – 3⅞” by 3” x 2
Simply Marbleous dsp – 3⅞” by 2⅞”
Basic White card – 3⅞” by 2⅝”
Misty Moonlight card – 4⅞” by 3⅜”
Basic White card – 4¾” by 3 ¼”
Misty Moonlight card – 2” by 2” cut across the diagonal into a triangle
Scrap Basic White card

Using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive, I adhered the two identical panels of Simply Marbleous dsp to the two identical Bermuda Bay panels. One was then glued to the card front and the other to the back of the card front.

The small panel of Basic White was glued to the left-hand side of the larger Bermuda Bay layer. The remaining piece of Simply Marbleous dsp was added next to it. To cover the join, I added the 1/8” strip of Bermuda Bay card.

Using Tear ‘n Tape around the top and side, I added the triangle of Misty Moonlight ink to the upper right corner of the card base to provide the latch.

I inked up the large wave image using Bermuda Bay ink and added patches of Pacific Point and Misty Moonlight using Sponge Daubers and stamped it onto the larger Basic White panel. This was then mounted on the Misty Moonlight panel using the liquid glue.

The pelican on the posts was stamped in Soft Suede ink and coloured using Crumb Cake and So Saffron Blends Markers. I die cut it out using the co-ordinating Wave Dies and added it, on Dimensionals to the stamped panel. The whole piece was then added to the card front, taking care to add ink only to the left-hand side. The top of the stamped panel then tucked under the latch.

I stamped the poles with and without birds three more times on scrap Basic White and cut them out to add inside the card.

The sentiment from the Handsomely Suited stamp set was stamped inside the card in Misty Moonlight ink.

My son loves the sea and I am sure he will enjoy this card.
