To the Beach – TE Share Joy Challenge #43

I’m playing along with Taylored Expressions Share Joy Challenge #43.

I used the sketch (rotated ninety degrees counter-clockwise) to create a beach-themed card.

I put a die-cut circle representing the sun in the spot on the sketch where there’s a large circle and used the swim suit pieces in the spots with the smaller circles. (I took a lot of artistic license with the sketch!)

For this card, I colored watercolor cardstock with Distress Inks before cutting it with the various dies (from the On the Line Beach Cutting Plate set) to create a different look. Instead of centering the palms on the scene, I offset them so that the palm on the right is more prominent. The Sunshine word die was a complimentary die provided in one of my Taylored Expressions orders.

  1. Wonderful detail on this card Jean. The watercolouring on the wave is fabulous, and I love the little swimsuits! Great job, as always.
