Here's my card for today's sketch challenge over at Split Coast.I made mine a summer fun card with this cute beach chair and umbrella, beach fence and shell stamps all from Rubbernecker . I paper pieced the umbrella and chair, popping the umbrella up on foam dimensionals. Just for fun, I added a little pearl to the clam shell stamping!
Inside I stamped the small sand dune twice, another shell and this sentiment on a white panel.
Exciting news: This weekend I'm going to be helping Dave (owner of Rubbernecker) run his booth at the Heirloom's West Springfield, MA Rubber Stamp and Paper Arts Festival!! Whoo hoo!!
