AYSI356 Last Hurrah for Summer

Happy Friday, stampers! It's time for a new challenge from As You See It, and this is a lovely sketch--you know I love things in "threes", so this is right up my alley!  Here's the sketch:


I have been very neglectful of the pretty In Color Summer Splash, so I decided to give it a last summer hurrah, using some summery, beachy elements!  Here we go:


I diecut three banners from the Summer Splash DSP and added a wee bit of ribbon behind each one.  Then I embellished each one with some elements from the Notes & Totes dies, and put everything on a piece of Basic White cardstock embossed with the Seashells embossing folder:


I added a little sentiment from Choose Happy, and some more ribbon:


 We've had an exceptionally cool August and I feel like mother nature is going to come back with a warmer-than-normal September!  We'll see if my prediction comes true, LOL!  Meanwhile, I hope you'll play with our triple-banner sketch!  Share it over at As You See It and take a peek at what the other design team members created!  Thanks for visiting today!  And here are a couple more pictures from vacation:


Cassidy is burying her friend in the sand--she asked to be buried, crazy!


Dana, Wayne and Cassidy revisited the cute little gazebo where they got married---it will be eight years go next week!! Time flies!


Enjoy your day and be blessed!

Very cute & creative card!! I've neglected Summer Splash as well, altho I bought it as soon as it was released. Very pretty color...falls between Coastal Cabana & Bermuda Bay so it's great for color-layering.
I can't believe Cassidy is as tall as Dana already! Whoa! GREAT pictures of the of them. I'm wishing Dana & Wayne an early congrats on their 8th anniversary!! Have a wonderful weekend, my friend! Huggs from still-hot Florida!

LeAnne, I love your colors, design, and darling seashells - now I always wonder if you think of your mom while using them?
Looks like everyone had a great time on vacay!

I love this embossing folder with the sea shells and those tiny little shells that fit perfectly on the banners!

Loving the big embossed seashells paired with the smaller die cut set! Terrific card, LeAnne!
