Teapot Tuesdays Challenge - MMTPT736 - Just Because - August 30, 2022
Embellish our cards with gemstones "Just Because" we all deserve some sparkle in our lives!
I started with a solid green cardstock background cut with a scalloped rectangle die. Then I added patterned paper on top of this base layer. I cut the circle frame from the same green cardstock.
I stamped, colored, and die cut the crab holding flip flops. I cut the Hello word out of orange cardstock to match the color of the flip flops.
To add sparkle, I used green gems at the center of the strap on each flip flop and scattered around the sentiment.

I like this salute to summer footwear and using a gem on the flipflops to "secure" the strap was brilliant. I love all the happy tropical colors to keep autumn away a bit longer.
