Life's A Beach

Hi Crafty Friends,
Have you been to the beach this summer? Does this card remind you of your trip? I haven't been to the beach and don't have any plans to go so I can only live vicariously through my cards :). Isn't her PINK bathing suit and bow on her hat soooo cute!?

Make Crafty Friends Q & A:
Q: What is your favorite beach?
A: Me? Pentwater, Michigan Beach where we used to go on family vacation every summer

 I started my card by creating the water panel using distress oxide inks and a cool stencil from Catherine Pooler called Swoop.
I mounted my panel on a pink base and add the sand which is just torn and inked kraft paper. Then I put the die cut sun and clouds int he sky and added the cute little baby girl.

    oh I have to say I am a fan of Greek beached but this one you created is a joy! What a fab idea to use the torn paper for the sand and I adore the background. Fab use of the stencil. And well, don't we all wish we had a bathing suit like this! Thanks for joining us at Time Out-fab to see you again x

    Such a cute beach card and what a coincidence--I used to go to Pentwater as a child with family friends who had a cottage there.

    Oh Meghan, this is the cutest Summer card! Such a sweet image and a fantastic background! Love your torn sand strip and cute die cuts. My favourite beach would have to be in the Seychelles - warm water and tropical surroundings! Thanks so much for sharing your cute card with us at The Paper Shelter!
