There’s nothing that makes a Happy Day! better than a beautiful sunset at the beach. As soon as I saw the Friend Like You Bundle I thought of creating this card. The palm trees die makes creating a beautiful beach scene easy. This die cuts out the palm trees and curvy landscape.
You may not notice, at first that the palm tree stamps can be used under the die for a realistic look. In fact, that was my original plan until I messed up my first sky by dropping my Memento ink pad on it! Alas, there are two sides to a piece of paper. When I flipped the paper to the back side, it created an opportunity for me to be creative. I found that tucking a piece of basic black cardstock behind the trees it created a silhouette. I love the way it makes the palm trees the focal point of the card.
I used sponge daubers with; Daffodil Delight, Flirty Flamingo, Melon Mambo, and Pool Party to create the sunset. I created a 1″ circle mask and then I used a sponge dauber and Mango Melody for the sun. The ocean is Coastal Cabana.
