Oh I would love to be by the beach with a cocktail in my hand! Who's with me??
Well we can dream... or I can just stare at the card I made haha...
I've made this card for a few challenges that I'm going to enter, they are either beach or summer themed..
So I've ink blended a few distress oxide inks to make the background, I used the following :-
Seedless Preserves
Festive Berries
Squeezed Lemonade
Salty Ocean
Wild Honey - for the sun
The beach has been heat embossed with the Hero Arts Sand embossing powder, and I used 2 stamp sets, The sentiment set is MFT - Spirited Sentiments and the glasses are by Stampin Up! - Mixed Drinks, I used glossy accents to get some bubbles in my cocktail too!
So the challenges I'm entering into are :-
- Always Fun Challenge #116 - Fun at the beach
- Just Us Girls Challenge #493 - Photo Inspiration
- Artistic Stamper June challenge - By the seaside
- Words to Craft by #66 - Running barefoot
- Sweet Stampin - Summer EDITED I got top 3 YAY
- Ellibelle's Crafty Wednesday - June/July Challenge - Summer Scenes, Summer Treats or Summer Colors
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you like the card!
