Surf N Sand… Yes Please!
I can’t deny it, I’m missing warm weather really badly right now. So…to bring some sunshine into my world, I’ve created a card that reminds me of the beach!
I played around with Peakcock Feathers Distress Ink and Dylusions Vibrant Turquoise Spray Ink on Watercolor paper…that’s my SURF! Peaking through from behind is my sunshine of Dylusions Squeezed Orange!!
I used the new die from Tim Holtz… Courtyard Frameworks…it’s amazing!!! Love the continuous design! To finish off my design, I added Doodlebug White Sprinkles to the centers.
I’ve shot a video of my process, hope you enjoy!
Thanks for stopping by today, have a fantastic WARM week if you can!!

I love your card. Love the die. Thanks for sharing. I so cannot wait until it gets warmer.
What a beautiful blue and that die is to “die” for! This makes me yearn for the beach!
Beautiful card !!!
Love the card, Shari… I also need some sunshine, and warmth! We’ve had over 100 inches of the nasty white stuff “so far!” Michigan Michele!
Beautiful card-the warm colors do evoke summer for me!
Love the colors and the summer feelings it invokes…and that die!

What a gorgeous card! I love it’s simple design.
Love those colors! It’s snowing here – big, flakey flakes…sigh…will winter ever leave??
I love this card and how you used all the materials and embellishments. Wonderful!
I just love this card! Using the acetate is a stroke of genius….adds so much!
Ooooh … i love it!
This is just beautiful! Love the summery complementary colour scheme, the water colouring (salt water, of course!) and the way the surf and sand anchor the scene (the rest of the card being the clean sky). You just picked my day up, Shari!
Love, love, love this one! The colors are fantastic and once again – you hit the mark. So love to watch you create! Thank you for sharing.
That is beautiful.
Thanks for sharing your little bit of sunshine.

What a great card! I love the acetate window you made for this card.
WOW! love the card and it does warm me up. LOL
Love this card – the colors are great and I do love clean cards…. We too need some warmth back. We live in Houston and the winters are generally very mild. We had ice covered trees yesterday. Never seen that before. It was so beautiful, but oh so cold for us when we are used to warm weather!!
