Seas The Day: Ocean-Inspired Cards with Positive Vibes, Spellbinders

I have a fun set of ocean-inspired cards to share with you today! The stamp set I used is no longer available, but don’t let that stop you, this is the perfect opportunity to shop your stash. If you love ocean themes as much as I do, I know you’ve got some great sentiments and images that would work beautifully to create something similar.

I’m sharing all the details below so you can easily recreate the look with what you have on hand.

Seas The Day: Ocean-Inspired Cards with Positive Vibes, Spellbinders

For this card, I started with Distress Watercolor Cardstock and a #6 round paintbrush, along with Distress Watercolor Pencils. I hand-painted the wave background using Salty Ocean and Uncharted Mariner, letting the colors blend naturally as I worked across the panel. Once everything was completely dry, I went back in and added a few splatters using Uncharted Mariner and my paintbrush to give the background a little extra movement and interest.

The sentiments and anchor were heat embossed in gold for a touch of shine, then die cut and popped up with foam squares to add dimension. To finish things off, I sprinkled a few Bubble Blow Out gems onto the background for subtle sparkle.

Even though the exact stamp set I used is no longer available, this is such a fun card style to recreate. Pull out your favorite ocean colors, simple shapes, or nautical sentiments and make it your own, this design is perfect for experimenting and letting your creativity flow.

Hope this sparked some crafty ideas for your next project!
