Love You To The Beach And Back

Hello there my crafty friends!  I selected a piece of Pixie Sparkled card that used the Blue Wish Pixie Sparkles.  I cut the Underwater Life Frame several times in white.  I used pieces of on frame to extend the size of the base frame.  I cut away some of the seashells and starfish and layered them up on the base for dimension.  I added some of the seaweed across the top of the frame to enclose it as well.  I used the I Love You To The Beach And Back Sentiment cut in white.  I shadowed them with black and glued them into the centre of the frame in the two sections.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7"  x  7 1/2"  in size.  All for now, Sue x

Morning Sue.
If there's one place I feel totally relaxed it's the beach, the sound of the waves lapping gently on the shore, the seagulls, that smell only a beach has.
I'd love to see this in real life, I can try and imagine the gentle sparkle your background has.
So the florist has a large number of my cards now and I'm shocked to report that before we got home I'd had my first order for an engagement card for next Friday so I have all the tools and knowledge I've collected from you over the 10 years to get this done today and delivered to the shop as we are away for the week from tomorrow so it's eyes down and crack on, thanks Sue for all the inspiration etc you've given to help us make beautiful memories for others.
Take care, keep well and stay safe xxx

Good Morning Sue and all.
What a lovely card for us today Sue. The background is lovely and the rest of the card is just so perfect.
I've brought some of my card crafting stuff to the care home but have had to be selective because of a work space issue. I may start with this one to see how it goes.
Thank you for the inspiration.
Big Hugs.
Marie P.

STAY SAFE

Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, a stunning creation in blue and white, looks amazing, I can just imagine that colour underwater especially on a tropical island, oh I wished - well a girl can dream can't she, ha ha.

Stay safe, healthy and happy, June Smith xxx

Hi Sue, I am not too sure about today's card, I think it is one that I would need to see in person to properly appreciate it.

Steph, so pleased you now have an outlet for your cards.
