Paradise Palms Sunset Thank You Card


I am really happy that the Paradise Palms Bundle carried over into the new Annual Catalogue! If you've visited my blog before, you'll know that I love ocean and sunset cards! I just ordered this stamp set and dies recently, and hadn't used them yet, so I thought I'd give it a go for this month's contest!

Here's a photo that shows the shine on the water better.

This was a fairly quick card to make. Our Blending Brushes are so easy to use, and help you create gorgeous backgrounds, like the one above. I masked the sun, and added Daffodil Delight, Mango Melody, Polished Pink, and Highland Heather in circles around the sun. Next, I masked the sky with a Post-it Note, and added Bermuda Bay and Pacific Point to the water with Blending Brushes. The island, trees, sentiment, and birds were stamped with Tuxedo Black ink. Wink of Stella adds some extra shine to the water!


The cool border is cut with one of the Palms dies, and the card front is attached with Stampin' Dimensionals above the frame. Full directions are below.

Full Directions for My Paradise Palms Card:
  1. Cut the following layers:
    • Bermuda Bay cardstock: 5-1/2" x 8-1/2", scored at 4-1/4"
    • Shimmery White cardstock: 5" x 3-3/4"--die cut with second largest Stitched Rectangles die
    • Basic Black cardstock: 5-3/4" x 3" (cut 4 lattice pieces)
  2. Cut a 1" circle from a Post-it note to use as a mask for the sun. Use Blending Brushes to add ink around the circle (Daffodil Delight, Mango Melody, Polished Pink, and Highland Heather). Remove mask, and add a little Daffodil Delight over the sun.
  3. Cover the sky with a large Post-it note, and add Bermuda Bay and Pacific Point to the water. Add some waves with Pacific Point (using the fence stamp from On the Horizon), and some Wink of Stella to the water. 
  4. Stamp the sentiment, birds (both from On the Horizon), island, and trees (both from Paradise Palms) in Tuxedo Black.
  5. Glue the lattice pieces to the edges of the Bermuda Bay card base, trimming the vertical pieces to fit.
  6. Adhere the card front to the card base with Stampin' Dimensionals.
  7. Add three Iridescent Rhinestones Basic Jewels to card front.
