It’s theme week at Global Design Project, so we’re spending some time at the “beach.” I began with a Crumb Cake card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″, layered with Basic White Cardstock, 3 3/4″ X 5″. Prior to attaching the layer with Dimensionals, I embossed it with the So Swirly Embossing Folder. You need to have waves at the beach, right?

Sending beach smiles

 

For more waves, I used a Paradise Garden Die to cut four banners. The yellow and blue banners were cut from Beautiful Bokeh Designer Paper. The sun (Crushed Curry Ink), and “hello summer” (Balmy Blue Ink) are from the Choose Happy Stamp Set. The Basic White Cardstock banner was stamped in Crushed Curry Ink, with “sending smiles” from the Lovely Arrangements Stamp Set.

 

The fourth banner was cut from Crumb Cake Cardstock. I used the Mini Alphabet Die with Country Woods Designer Paper and Foam Adhesive Sheets to cut the word “beach.” Then, I glued the banners to the embossed card front.

 

As a final detail, I embellished the design with pearls, dots, and gems, which are in my Product List below.
