Hello there, it’s time for another Watercooler Wednesday Challenge.Today the lovely Donna is our host for the all about holidays challenge theme.
My card celebrates a summer holiday. We’re in the middle of summer here in Australia and I think I’ve only been able to get to the beach twice – very un-Australian of me!
I decided to use a new stamp set from Stampin Up called ‘Beach Happy’ which I inked up in Stampin Up Granny Apple Green, Grapefruit Grove, Mango Melody and a bit of Crumb Cake for the sand. The card base is Stampin Up Bermuda Bay cardstock. I used a Stampin Up embossing folder called Seaside to create the look of waves on my card base.
I really love how this card worked out and will be using this stamp set quite a bit more.
Come join in the fun and make a holiday inspired card. Check out the projects that the other artists at Watercooler Wednesday Challenges have created, then take the challenge and link your creation to the challenge post. We’d love to have you join us. You have until Wednesday, 29th January at 10:00 Melbourne Time or Tuesday 5pm US Mountain Time to link up your project.
Thanks for looking and have a great day.
Love your card today, esp. the blue background! Does make me think of the beach even though there’s feet of snow everywhere and we’re expecting ice tonight here!
