Summer Holiday Tower Card

I made this Tower Card for a recent card swap, where the theme was 'Summer Days'.

The patterned paper was from two paper pads, one from The Range and one from The Works and a snippet of blue mottled card for the sky. The sand is non-shed glitter card.  I used one of the dies from the Joanna Sheen 'Beach Huts' set and added dark grey paper behind the little square at the top and the open door.
