How gorgeous is this handmade greeting card? Between the bright colors and the beautiful Pearlescent Specialty Paper used as a focal point for this card, you’re sure to make someone’s day if you make and send this card to them!
The Pearlescent Specialty Paper was the perfect paper to use on this beachy project as its pearlescent sheen adds a lot of sparkle and shimmer! I love this paper as it takes your paper crafting projects to the next level with no effort on your part!
This is a Distinktive stamp set which means it has a special texture that gives added depth and dimension to your stamped images. In a single step, you can create photo-realistic images. You can find other cards made with Distinktive stamp sets here.
For the color palette on this card, I wanted something fresh and bright so I went with this color combination:
It’s so bright and cheery and sure to make anyone’s day!
