Hello friends, it is summertime at Double D and our theme is
LET'S GO TO THE BEACH..
Sounds good to me, living close to Lake Michigan
we have LOTS of beaches around us,
I love the beach, how about you?
We have a very 'beachy' mood/inspiration board
but you can create anything 'beachy'!!
Last year I 'hit' a Spellbinders warehouse sale and purchased one of their
small dies of the month July 22 Day At The Beach.
As soon as I saw the board I knew I wanted to use this die set for the 2nd time.
I didn't give her a polka dot bikini but she does has a polka dot swimsuit! I die cut all my pieces from my zillion
scrap pieces I have bags and bags of, sorted by colors of course!
The background paper is from Honeybee, I added an embossed cloud
from my 'spare parts' bin and a few IO seagulls. This was a fun set to put
together and relatively easy too.
Come on over to Double D and have some summer fun with us
and check out all the awesome summer DT projects!
Entering the following challenges:
Snippets Playground .... Snippets
Halloween & Other Occasions .... Great Outdoors
Aud Sentiments #326 .... Summer & a Sentiment

This is adorable Diane! What a great way to use up your scraps. Everything came together perfectly.
Lovely and serene beach scene! The yellow polka dots take me to a song... Lots of fun beachy details....especially the flip flops!
I do think this is the cutest set, including that fun beach towel! Most of us oldies would recognize your itsy bitsy reference to the song, too. It's hard to beat yellow polka dots. Really a fabulous card, Diane!
This is such an adorable card!
First I am one of those oldies who recognized the yellow polka dot bikini! HA! Using all of the bits from your scraps is jut the best, it is so comforting to do that. There is a saying that the Italians have and it is called Dolce fare niente. It means the sweetness of doing nothing. That is what I feel when I see your card. Lovely!
She has planted herself in the most perfect spot! Lots of die cutting but oh so worth it! Love this fun beach scene. And her towel, so much detail it looks like it is cut from felt! Awesome!
What a beautiful scene! Great use of scraps. Love everything about it.
A lovely summery card made with your snippets.
Thanks for coming to play in the Snippets Playground. See you up in the treehouse shortly. The paddling pool is out as it’s been so hot here! X
What a great seaside scene Diane! And wonderful use of snippets as well. Great work!
Hugs

OMG this is so so cute! Looks like a lot of work but you're so good with all these little pieces dies and create some amazing cards ... such as this one! What fun!!
Oh, I love, love, LOVE that die set. I had my eye on it when it first came out and I sure wish I would have gotten it. Your colors are fabulous, and you even had that gal in a yellow polka dot bikini....I will probably have that some in my head for days now. I just adore this card - and you popped up the birds too. GENIUS!!!
