Hello! I am actually writing this while sitting lake side - and life is definitely good here! So peaceful and relaxing - and of course, just gorgeous! And I just decor that reflects the ocean and nautical theme.
I started with cutting a woodgrain background paper with the Spellbinders
A2 Matting Basics A. I then cut two of the Grapevine wreath by Cottage Cutz in craft paper and glued them down with Art Institute glue. Note that any wreath die would work. I then added my nautical elements to it: some seashell stamps and black or silver Craft Foil cut Impression
Obsession Mini Nautical Set. To add dimension to it, I popped up some of the elements with small Joy! foam pads. My final touch is a sign from Lawn Fawn Life is Good sentiment stamped with black
detail embossing powder and cut out with a rounded banner from the MFT
Blueprint 13 set.
And of course, I had to do some negative die-cutting for the inside of the card.
As always, thank you so much for looking and I hope you can play along with our Beach challenge!
What a great idea about using all those wreath dies. This card is beautifully executed and darn cute besides! Many thanks for the inspiration....enjoy your time near the water.

ReplyDeleteI love that the inside is not forgotten either. Really makes it classy.
