A cute summer swimsuit isn’t always easy to find. At least one that fits right! I remember being in my 20’s and finding a swimsuit that I loved. I should have bought all in my size! It is honestly the one time I can say I bought a suit that I loved.
With this in mind, I wanted to send a friend a swimsuit because she was complaining she couldn’t find one. I know what you are thinking at this point. No, I’m not stupid enough to go buy her a suit to wear. I am sending her one in a card.
Loving cards with a surprise element to them, I am sending her a card with a twist. Well, sort of. It is a special fold. I can choose from a one or two piece swimsuit. I am choosing to create a one piece, striped suit.
A cute summer swimsuit is easy to create with paper and ink!
And a fun stamp set! the Sunny Splash stamp set is just that! With four different swimsuits to choose from the possibilities are endless.
Changing the look of each suit is fun and easy. When you use our Stampin’ Write Markers you can color the stamps. You can create colored stripes, two-toned, and mix & match suits. Also, create more two piece suits by leaving an uncolored area in the middle of the one-piece suits. Make it even easier by just inking your suit in your favorite classic ink color and stamp.
Wanting to keep it simple, I stamped the striped suit in Fresh Freesia ink. I then fussy cut it out to add it to the left flap. Adorn your suit with your favorite embellishments. I used the Fun Flowers Resin Shapes.
Here is a video of my live where I created this twisted card in my Sunny Splash Fun Fold Card.
You won’t believe this card uses the same set and DSP! Here is another cards tha I made using the Butterfly Kisses Designer Series Paper. See this Beautiful Butterfly card.
