For the Better Photos Inspiration Challenge, I really liked the multicolored chairs in a row at the beach (Forums at Splitcoaststampers) and so to create my beach scene, I used my Sizzix Buttons #5 die, made the sand foreground out of cardboard, and added "seaweed strands" of twine and string. My clouds are white cardboard and cotton balls. I added "Just Because" as it fit well here.

you've captured the very essence of that wonderful photo, Julia! Wouldn't it be fun to plop right down in one of those chairs right now and feel the warmth of the sun on your face!

What an original, creative way to interpret the bright colored chairs ... with awesome, die cut buttons! Very neat card! I like the way you distressed the recycled cardboard to represent your sand, as well.
