Welcome to the Waves of the Ocean Blog Hop. I’m sharing some #simplestamping today with my Waves of the Ocean Inspiration Card.
The Crafty Collaborations Team is comprised of Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from around the world. Each month we participate in several collaborative projects, including Blog Hops, like this one, to inspire all of us in our passion for crafting. Our goal is to create, share, and inspire every crafter to keep our creative energy flowing.

I love the pilings and the bird perched on top. It is such a strong image. I think it works so well with this sentiment. This bundle comes with wonderful richly colored patterned papers, gems and detailed wave dies. These are beautiful and I wanted to show you that you can create a beautiful card with just the basics and the stamp set.
Here are a few other cards I have created with more products from the collection.



Instructions for #simplestamping Waves of the Ocean Card
- Cut a Basic Black card base 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ and score at 4 1/4″.
- Cut 2 Mint Macaron mats 5 1/8″ x 3 7/8″.
- Cut 2 Basic White pieces 5″ x 3 3/4″. Put one aside for inside the card base.
- Die cut a circle from a piece of scrap paper slightly larger than the Basic White piece. Lay it over the Basic White.
- With Mint Macaron ink use your blending brush to make a circle. Keep the ink lighter on the right hand side.
- Remove the “mask” and stamp the pilings and bird with Early Espresso ink on the right hand side of the circle.
- Also using Early Espresso ink, stamp the sentiment to the left of the base of the piling.
- Adhere the stamped piece to one Mint Macaron mat and adhere to the card base.
- On the second piece of Basic White stamp just the pilings on the bottom right hand corner. (Ink the image and use your shammy to wipe away any ink from the bird.)
- Adhere the Basic White to the second Mint Macaron mat and adhere to the inside of the card.

Symbols of Fortune stamp camp

Please join me and 12 talented Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from around the world for an amazing Stamp Camp experience. This Symbols of Fortune Stamp Camp will feature the softly colored and shimmery suite of products. You can see each of the items here:
This Stamp Camp includes a card kit to make 12 cards…one designed by each of the demonstrators on the Creativity Abounds team. In this card kit you will get the card bases and any pieces of card stock needed to make the card. If a die other than the ones included in the Crane of Fortune Bundle is used, it will be cut for you. Envelopes are included as well.
You will use your Symbols of Fortune patterned paper, Crane of Fortune Bundle, Soft Succulent Satin Shimmer ribbon, Polished Dots, and inks and adhesives.
This kit will come with an emailed written tutorial for each card as well as “unlisted” videos to show you how to make the cards.
On April 29 -30 , 2022, you will be part of an exclusive Facebook Group where we will have 12 LIVE presentations showing another project made with the suite. As the group is international, some LIVES will be at less convenient times, but they will all be recorded in the FaceBook group and you will have access to them forever. You are invited to post your cards, comment and play along with challenges in this exclusive group as well.
The only fee to participate in this Stamp Camp is purchase through me of the Symbols of Fortune Suite (item #157667- and all the products are included with this one number). If you already own these products, please substitute any other $82.75 (before shipping and tax) of products. Please use the link below as it includes my HOST CODE (3Z2Q2CK2).
.
You can order by clicking on this link: SHOP WITH CHATNCRAFT WITH LORRAINE and this will input the host code for you automatically. I will be notified of your purchase and will enroll you in Stamp Camp. Please be sure to order as soon as possible to ensure that nothing becomes unavailable!
NOTE: The Symbols of Fortune Suite is not available at this time because the Polished Dots are on backorder. You can participate in the Stamp Camp if you order all of the items individually (you’ll still save 10% on the Stamp & Die bundle) and add a different embellishment such as Iridescent Rhinestone Jewels. Please use the HOST CODE 3Z2Q2CK2.
About a week before Stamp Camp you will receive your card kit in the mail. Then a few days before the Symbols of Fortune Stamp Camp starts, you will receive an invitation to join the exclusive Facebook group.
If you have any questions, please email me at chatncraftwithlorraine@gmail.com.
