Beach Selfie



Back for day two of our Beachy Vacation in cards this week.  Today I’ve pulled out the very summery Best Day Ever stamp set for a fun and vibrant summery design.  I wanted to create the feeling of waves and sand as the background of the image, so I used pointillism.  I love how it gives you the feeling of the grains of sand and the foamy waves rolling in.  


A few designer paper pennants and enamel dots (to echo the pointillism) finish it off.  

Are you as ready for the beach as I am?  Now to only get rid of the 2 feet of snow in my yard!
