Hello all! I have been out of the gallery for a couple weeks and have really missed it! Today's colored just called me to my craft room to create a fun sneak peek to show you a little of what's going to be released Aug 1 by ODBD.
I used the new Flip Flop Fun to stamp my sentiment in Bermuda Bay on my craft colored cs, and the flip flops. I sponged "dunes" using torn post it notes, added some sponged "water" lines. I added some flower bling to the flip flops, after cutting them out with the custom Flip Flop Die. The little tiny shells are a teensy peek at another set called Anchor the Soul.
My towel is a piece of fabric I cut and then frayed the edges a bit. I had seen this idea on Pinterest and had to try it.
This is also for this week's Shining the Light challenge which is to use sponging. Basically the whole little scene is sponged.
Thanks so much for looking! I'll be back this evening to view the gallery and leave some love!

So clever you are, Grace! Your dunes are done so well and the flip flops are embellished perfectly. And then there is that wonderful beach towel for even more dimension. Such an adorable card.

You've created such a great beach scene! Love all the elements of your card, especially the towel (what a clever idea), the flip flops, and the dunes! Fabulous card, Grace!
