Life's A Beach
Hello there my crafty friends! I started with a piece of clear acetate and then cut the Beach Palms Stained Glass background die in black. I glued it to the acetate and used blue Crystal Tints to fill in the bottom part of it and orange to fill in the top of it. I set it aside to dry thoroughly then started o the other part of it. I cut the Beach Sunset Stained Glass inner die in black and glued it to a piece of clear acetate. I used blue, yellow and red Crystal tints to fill in the design. I set it aside to dry overnight too. I cut the centre die from the Beach Palms twice in black and offset them to create a slightly different design. I added a white backing to it, then layered it up with the other two parts of the die once they were dry. I attached them to a larger piece of white card and added the Life's A Beach sentiment in black below it. The card was completed with white and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 1/2" x 8" in size. All for now, Sue x

Oh wow Sue what a bank holiday treat. I'll read the instructions again, but the inspiration alone is just so powerful and beautiful. This is a post I'll visit numerous times today, it's really gorgeous and would be perfect mounted in a plain frame.

I lost my job few months back and there was no way to get income for my family, things was so tough and I couldn't get anything for my children, not until a met a recommendation on a page writing how Mr Bernie Wilfred helped a lady in getting a huge amount of profit every 6 working days on trading with his management on the cryptocurrency Market, to be honest I never believe it but I took the risk to take a loan of $1000. and I contacted him unbelievable and I was so happy I earn $12,500 in 6 working days, the most joy is that I can now take care of my family I don't know how to appreciate your good work Mr. Bernie Doran God will continue to bless you for being a life saver I have no way to appreciate you than to tell people about your good services. For a perfect investment and good strategies contact Mr Bernie Doran via WhatsApp :+1(424)285-0682 or Telegram : @Bernie_doran_fx or Email : Bernie.doranfx01@gmail.com
