For Pat's Teapot Tuesday challenge, found here: MMTPT732-August 2, 2022-A Day at the Beach by casep at Splitcoaststampers
I had to pull out my set with beach huts. In the end I used the larger one stamped three times and fussy-cut - the Art Journey set also contains a smaller row of them. This reminds me of one of the places we have stayed in in France, where there are whole little communities of beach huts! I loosely adapted the Z-fold box, and used some Crafter's Companion papers to set the scene. Initially I tried a cloud ef and some paper for the sand, but this looks better. The lady is also from Art Journey, the sentiment is from Art Neko. Shell and seagull are both Impression Obsession, the shell is covered with Glossy Accents.

What a wonderfully designed card! The z fold is perfect for the huts and the woman. The seagull in the corner is a great way to bring attention to the saying. Very cool card...

Isn't it dreamy to sit on a beach and just peer out to sea. I think your lovely lady is doing just that. Love the scene you created with this fun fold and those equally fun beach huts. While you won't find those on our beaches, I have seen pics of beaches like that and love how each hut is decorated differently. Beautiful quote. This card has a very peaceful feel to it and Marla is sure to feel that peace as well. Beautiful card.

What a soothing and inviting scene! I’ve never been to France or to any beach where I’ve actually seen beach huts but it looks like fun! Great choice on using the z fold to elongate the scene, and I love that seagull in the sky. Lovely work!
