Summer Sunshine

Today is the first day of August 
and that means a new challenge starting at  the 

Dies R Us Challenge blog

and this time our theme is

Summertime Fun!

I had a little fun with this challenge by first using 
TH Distress ink 'Mermaid Lagoon' and simply sponging it on
glossy card stock.

I die cut 4 little black frames using Memory Box Square Shaker Frames.

In the frame of each, I added 

a sailboat from Impression Obsession Sailboats,

 a seahorse from Memory Box Swimming Seahorses,

an anchor from Impression Obsession Mini Nautical,

and a star fish from Impression Obsession Mini Shell Set.

I finished my card with a die cut sentiment using

Impression Obsession Sunshine.

I had planned on tying a red/white twine on, 

but had adhered my panel to the card base as I forgot..geez!

So lets see YOUR Summertime Fun cards at the

Dies R Us Challenge blog
