Hi! This card was made for today's Ways to Use It Challenge: Negative Thoughts...We were to use the NEGATIVE of something...Like a punch out, etc.
So...I used the NEGATIVES of cut out circles from my handy dandy Coluzzle! These scraps were in my scrap bin, and I decided to use them!
Speedy the Cat hid this Beach Stamp Set under the bath mat last evening...I do NOT like the beach. I do not like the SAND. I do NOT like it Sam I Am!!! I will not get there by a train. I will not fly there by a plane. I will not go there in my van. I will not take my little man. I will not enjoy a trip to the SEA! You see, I do NOT like SAND on me!
So, since I have NEGATIVE thoughts about the beach, I decide to make this a double threat card! LOL!
The two mats are raised with foam tape. The Oatmeal panel and circle are SMALLER than the Blue Bayou panel and circle.
The images were stamped in Noir Black Palette Hybrid Ink and colored with SU! markers.

Wonderful card!
We're going to the beach today! Nothing a little water can't wash off. The kids love the beach--especially since we don't live near the ocean every day.
Now sand in a tent--that I can't stand. Have a great day!

Just beautiful! How can you NOT like the beach???!!!! I can't WAIT to go to the beach! I guess I just feel that way because I live in PA and am SO FAR away from the beach! This card is just so awesome, I would frame it and put it in my house so it would remind me of the beach, especially in the winter!!!!
