Join us! It is DIE week at Just Us Girls. Carol Mc is challenging us to make a SUMMER card using dies. Being from Florida... I love making warm weather cards. Thankfully it is hard to relate to snow from the beach.
I used a fun die set from Spellbinders for this card. I love this set because it is perfect for scraps. The small scene of the bather and her accessories can be made as one piece. This set is very easy to assemble (some Sizzix sets require me to watch a YouTube video!). I made five of this card solely for personal use to entice friends to get away and visit in those cold northern months.
I used a wave border to create the background; die cutting the "water" and stamped "sand" into nestable shapes. The sentiment is white embossed. I had to add this particular sentiment. My neighbor asks me every morning when I am out... "are you livin the dream?"
