For my card share today, I used the By the Seashore stamp set and the new Square Collection Framelits Dies from Stampin’ Up!  Sometimes it’s a challenge to make a single layer card, but I find that masking is the perfect technique for this.  It adds and extra “layer” without any bulk.  My card design was inspired by RetroSketches #70.

I started by using one of the Square Collection Framelits Dies to cut a mask from scrap paper.  I removed the square die cut and taped the mask to the front of my card in the location that I wanted using blue painters tape.  I sponged the cutout with Soft Sky ink until it was as dark as I wanted the color to be.

I left the mask in place and I stamped the three images from the By the Seashore stamp set in Chocolate Chip ink.  Then I removed the mask and stamped the sentiment from the Lots of Thanks stamp set in Chocolate Chip ink (using my Stamp-a-ma-jig for placement).

I finished the inside of the card by stamping the By the Seashore images again in Chocolate Chip ink across the bottom of the card.  As quick as that, the card was done!!
