Hello Sunshine!



Hello everyone! Here is a card that I made for a couple of challenges. I don't know about you, but when I look at this card, I TOTALLY want to be where ever this place is! LOL!
I cut the palm tree's from Paper Doll Dress Up and did some inking on them. The swim suit and trunks were cut from Life's A Beach and I added the clothespins which are from Baby Steps. I tore strips of paper for the sand and ocean. For the sun, I used a ribbon spool and traced it on some paper and cut it out. I added some twine and strung it tree to tree and added some bling to bikini top. To finish I stamped the sentiment in the sand.
I am going to enter this into the following challenges:
Exploring Cricut- Summer Fun with 3 Cricut cuts, 2 pattern papers, and 1 embellishment
Celebrate The Occasion- Welcome Summer
Paper Playtime- Anything Goes

SUPPLIES
My Craft Spot- Butterfly Kisses Stamp Set and Kraft Twine

    OMG what a cute card. I really love it, love the pattern paper of the palm tree tops. I have that paper and never thought to use it in that manner. Thanks!
    TFS!

    Hi Gigi, fabulous card and just what we need to lift our spirits. Under inches of rain and been blowing a gale here, actually blew my tree down! so I'd love to be wherever this is. A wonderful scene.
    Hope you're keeping well.
    Hugs Sue W.
