It's summer time and I hope you're having a good time. To bring even more summer feeling to your house I have a beach card for you today.
One of my all time favourite stamp sets is My Favorite Things’ Penguins in Paradise. All these penguins are so cute!
I stamped the penguin with the swim ring in black and coloured him with coloured pencils.
For the background I wanted something light and fresh. So I mixed some turquoise watercolour with a lot of water and spritzed it on the edge of the rectangle.
The palm trees from Lawn Fawn’s Tropical Backdrop are perfect to create a beachy feeling. I used the seperate palm trees and the grass (a very cute detail in my opinion) from this set and die cut them from coloured cardstock.
For the beach I took some beige cardstock and added some splashes of various brown colours.
The sentiment came from Mama
Elephant’s Beach Chickies Set. I cut two banners of matching cardstock and stamped the sentiment on one of them and heat embossed it in white!
Thanks for stopping by and have a crafty weekend!!

I love your card. It’s so sweet. The composition and colouring are great too. What a fabulous idea to use a watercolour spritz for the background, it’s really effective and I love how you created the sand. A real inspiration. Thank you.
