Welcome to my Sneak Peek of a wonderful new beach set by Sweet n' Sassy Stamps called Beauty by the Sea.
First I embossed a square Nestability in the center of my card. (you can see how I do this on my older post here) Then I cut a piece of this fun patterned paper to fit inside the frame (I'm thinking this is like a little beach blanket on the sand and the Starfish is laying on it getting a tan ! LOL!!!)
I stamped the starfish on the blue cardstock, cut it out and layered it over the patterned paper with foam tape. Then I did the same with the sentiment using an oval punch to cut it out.
Finally I added the die cut ocean waves - again with foam tape to give it a little dimension.
You'll find more info and pics of this lovely new set over at the Sweet N Sassy blog, and you'll find links to more DT samples!
It will be available for purchase on June 1 - just in time for those hot summer day cards you're going to be making!
Boy - I'd love to be laying on the beach on this cute blanket catching some rays and watching the waves roll by wouldn't you???!!!

Love this Julia! The red polka dots are a great addition!
How cute. It reminds me of the sea star on Finding Nemo.
love your colors, polka dots and that frame! thanks for sharing the tutorial, julia:)
This is just so cute, pretty, and 'relaxing' too! I noticed that the Followers thumbnails have been missing for quite a while now. I reported it and you can too here: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/blogger/ask?ln=0271191b4249689a&hl=en
such a darling card Julia!
I'll tell you what...I could use a little relaxation. Love this card and seeing it makes me want to spend time in a chair by the beach. Let's go!
What a fun card! I love how you added the waves and the fun red polka dots! Great card!
So cute Julia! Love the little starfish and how you displayed him :) Hopefully I will see a few of these little fellas in the near future :)
love this card julia-yeah I wish I was at the beach as well-although we had 90 degree temps yesterday with humidity-just like the outer banks weather
This is such a wonderful CAS design, Julia. Perfect card to welcome summer!
