A friend recently moved across to the other side of the country and will be living by the sea, near her daughter. I wanted to make the sea themed card and this is what I came up with.
The 'sand' is gold glitter card and I used mottled blue card for the sky. I die cut three Joanna Sheen 'Beach Huts' and backed them with matt silver paper. The clouds are Memory Box 'Puffy Clouds' and I used a Memory Box 'Oceana Border' die for the waves. The sentiment was typed on the computer and layered on a gold glitter card mat.
I am joining in the following challenges:
Your card took me back to memories of childhood beach holidays,a beautiful card Liz,hope your friend enjoys her new home
