Sending You Sunshine and Sending Smiles Across the Miles

Happy Tuesday!

I have the honor of being a social media guest designer for Pretty Pink Posh during the month of July. I am pumped to hold this title for an entire month!

All month long I'll be posting cards for Pretty Pink Posh here, on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, and Twitter. I thought I'd start out with two out of the norm cards using the brand new Summer Surfboards stamp and die set.

Did you ever think a grouping of surfboards could look like a cabana cover? Me neither until I was arranging some on my table after heat embossing a bunch of them. But all of a sudden that is how they looked to me, so I went with it!

I colored and die cut images from the Tropical Birds set and the branch from the Tropical Toucans set to create the scene below my cabana cover. To finish my card I added the sentiment and a few jewels from the Citrus Blend Jewels Mix.

The same thing happened when I stamped and heat embossed more of the Summer Surfboards, but this time they became a daisy. I added a sentiment from the Encouraging Greetings set and then fell instantly in love with the simplicity of this card! I added a few 4mm Metallic Silver Sequins to complete the card.

In a few days I'll be back with a more traditional use of the Summer Surfboards. Until then, happy crafting and I'll see you again tomorrow!
