Sky, Sea & Surf!

Hey everyone! Today I am gearing up for what's supposed to be the hottest day of the summer yet and after a trip to the pool, I plan to settle in to the air-conditioned office and scrap. On my work table are some of the fabulous embellishments in July's Deal of the Month. The summery, beachy elements are just perfect for this time of year! They inspired me to create this simple sand-and-surf themed card with some of the goodies:

CCbonvoyage
Bon Voyage • 4.25 x 5.5 card (Creative Imaginations) + cardstock (Bazzill) + mulberry paper (DMD) + charms, jewels, flower (Creative Charms) + letters (Scenic Route) + thread

I used rows of scalloped cardstock topped with gradient gems for the sky, layered teal mulberry paper for the waves, and torn kraft cardstock for the sand. I strung the sea-themed charms on thread stitched it to each edge of the card and topped the sand with the glittering amber flowers.

Hope your Tuesday is filled with sunshine (and a little scrapping too!)
