This card started as a "what's on the desk" card. This is where I raid my "island of misfit pieces" and make a card with them. I had the Basic White arch die cut (Garden Meadow dies) along with the Pool Party "sea urchin" (is that what this is?) and started to play:
I decided something needed to be under the sea urchin, and chose to create three sand dollars with the Seaside Wishes Hybrid Embossing folder. After cutting/embossing (at the same time!) them with Basic Beige cardstock, I dirtied them up with a little sponging and Crumb Cake ink. They look so real!
It was easy to put it all together with a piece of Country Woods designer paper in the background. The arch was stamped with a greeting from the Garden Meadow stamp set, and then I cut a little sea grass with the Seaside Wishes dies and some Lost Lagoon cardstock.
When it was done I liked it so much that I used it for my August Card Club and everyone got a chance to make it. And all because of a few scraps on my desk. I guess I should never throw them out! (Just tell that to my husband...😏).
