Handmade card portfolio
… because life's a beach
Made from cardstock and patterned paper, and combining a variety of papercraft and cardmaking techniques, each of Shell’s handmade cards is one of a kind. While some cards may combine die cut shapes, others feature images created with rubber stamps and a variety of media (chalk, pigment ink, water-soluble markers, or coloured pencils).
Some feature surface embellishments such as pearls, gems, or brads. Others may have lace or ribbon. Others still may have a charm or other trinket.
More complex cards feature unique fold , a cutaway, or a pop-up.
