Thoughtful Octopus Birthday Cards

Hi friends!

Today I’m sharing the second of three cards featuring the Thoughtful Octopus stamp set. This one features the Waterside Retreat Designer Series paper, plus the Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper, both of which work really well with this stamp set.

The octopus is stamped in Gorgeous Grape ink, on the Beautiful Bokeh DSP. The small dots and the sea grass images are added underneath the octopus and the party hat is fussy cut and popped up on dimensionals. Both the image panel and sentiment piece are mounted on Azure Afternoon c/s and adhered to the Waterside Retreat DSP.

This card is part of this week’s online class to go (17 – 22 August  2026).

Full supply list, video tutorial, and class information can be found further down the post.
