Hot Weather Means Going to the Beach

Don't forget that Lunagirl Moonbeams are still enjoying the summer with a "Bathing Beauties" challenge.

 

This piece of cardstock has been lying on my work table forever and I was tired of moving it around so I decided the best thing to do with it is use it.  I am not sure how I made this background.  I just know it started out as a piece of red cardstock.  I know, it is hard to believe!   If you look closely, you will see a hint of red.

 

Below you will see what I made with a piece of it.  At least there is not quite as much to move around until I can use the rest.  Yes, I am sure, at least I hope, not the only one who saves all the leftovers from a project.

 

The sand was made with a piece of tan cardstock stenciled with a little brown ink.  And, of course, the image is from Lunagirl!

 

Lunagirl's Bathing Beauties Challenge

A little color-blocking was done on this card showing one of the bathing beauties found on the Lunagirl Moonbeams site.  Lunagirl is having a Vintage Seashore and Bathing Beauties challenge.  The Design Team would love to see what you create, so hop over there and enter.

Let's Go to the Beach!

Let's go to the beach as Lunagirl's Moonbeans has created some projects following the theme "Bathing Beauties".  Below are a couple of cards I created as pieces of inspiration for the Lunagirl theme.

For my first card I torn the bathing beauty image from Lunagirl Moonbeams and placed it on some designer paper that looked like a beach with sand at a fence.  As embellishment I used a large seashell sticker and a sentiment on an acrylic piece.

This next card uses designer paper that looks like water.  The wave, seashells and pearls came from an embellishment kt.  Also included are the water bubbles.  Again an acrylic sentiment finishes off the card.  Below is the challenge announcement you will find on Lunagirl Moonbeams.  Now hurry over and join the challenge.  Need a shortcut?  Just click on announcement below.
