A Summer Card

 

Today I am showing you a summer card made with a cute beach bag. I added a phone, beach ball, sunglasses, a straw hat, flipflops and a couple of shells onto it. The stitch motif on the background panel kind of looks like water floating. 

I added some blue ink to the background panel. On top of that I added all the die cuts of the lovely beach bag set of Papertrey Ink. It was fiddly to add all the pieces but it really looks lovely. An over all cute summer card that can be used for many occasions. I added a home made sentiment that if translated to English it would say Happy Summer. For now I will be adding this to my stash.

I will be adding this to the following challenges:
Cardz 4 Galz #253 - Welcome To Summer
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday - Anything Goes
Double D - Beach Challenge
Papercraft #119 - Summer Vibes
The Sisterhood Of Crafters - Fun In The Sun
Creative Uncles #66 - Summer
Allsorts #826 - Seaside or Anything Goes
The Card Concept #218 - Summer Days

Till next time

A CAS Butterfly card

 

So this is my very first attempt to make a Clean and Simple butterfly card.

I did some partial embossing on the top panel using a script themed embossing folder. The butterfly was cut out with a butterfly cutting die from a marble blue background that I found online. I also embossed the butterfly with the script embossing folder but it is hard to see in the photo.

I thought that the sentiment fitted the embossing folder and it allows me so used this for different occasions also

I have added this card for the challenge at CAS on Friday

Happy crafting
