My beachy card features several stamps and dies from Taylored Expressions. The Wave Border die was used to create the water and a torn piece of Choice Kraft was used to create the sand. The umbrella from the TE A Day in Paradise stamp set was paper pieced, cutout, and popped up with foam tape. The other TE dies used include the Little Bits Beach Ball and Sandcastle and the Build a Scene Sunshine and Swirly Clouds. The sentiment is from the TE Little Bits of Summer set and the button with hemp cording is the finishing touch. TFL!!

Howdy neighbor! I'd love to be spending the day at your beach! What a fun scene. I guess I just have to be content with being home.......80 degrees, full sun, hot tub and pool! Life is rough!
