Hello bloggers! I thought this collection would be perfect for a shadowbox style card. I started by cutting the New Arrival Shadowbox in white and adding mounting foam to the back of it. For the largest square, I cut the beach chair from the Beach Accessories in blue and white and added it. I used the smaller sun in the corner from the Beach Bathers set. For the four small squares above, I cut the flip flops, beach ball, tropical drink with umbrella and the beach pail and shovel and glued them into the squares. For the remaining two rectangular squares, I cut the sand castle for one and the beach bag for the other one and situated them both to the right side of the openings. I cut the Beach Bather with the polka dotted swimsuit on and added her across the left side of the space on top of the shadowbox frame. I double cut her hat and added it with mounting foam to add dimension. I cut the biplane in red and used a fine tipped marker to trace the words and added it to the frame that I cut with the Double Stitched Rectangles. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7" x 8 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x
