Wishing You A Day Full of Sunshine

Hello there my crafty friends!  I started today's card by cutting a piece of white card for the background.  I decided to sponge some Antique Linen distress ink on the bottom of the card for the look of sand.  Next I cut the Beach towel and the umbrella from the Beach accessories die set.  I cut the towel in white then added stripes of aqua card and ocean card.  I cut the umbrella out of ocean card, then added the sections of aqua to it and a white pole to it.  I cut the Beach Bather with the polka dotted swimsuit and coloured her with markers.  I did the beach hat by cutting the die two more times with a small piece of ocean card.  I hand cut around the brim on one and just the very centre of the hat on the other one.  I added the smaller part with mounting foam for the 3D look of the hat.  I cut the plane out of teal card an added the banner cut out of white card.  I used a fine tipped marker to trace the words on the banner.  I added the larger sun cut in white in the upper corner.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 3/4"  x  7 3/4"  in size.  All for now, Sue x
