RRCB276 Love the Beach

Happy Wednesday, peeps!  Halfway through the week!  I keep alternating between summer cards and Christmas cards---both are fun to do!  Today it's a summer card, and I am using the sketch from Retro Rubber:

Of course, since there are three panels, I had to play along!  Only a wee bit of stamping on this one, it's mostly ink, paper and dies:

I have an old Cuttlebug die (2006) that I used with some Basic Beige cardstock, then colored the cutouts with SU blends.  I added some Itty Bitty Backgrounds (1997) to the square pieces and mounted them all on a piece of Vitamin Sea from Honey Bee:

I also tried my hand at "speckling" the diecuts with some white craft ink....I definitely need practice on that!  The sentiments are from Unity's All Smiles (2011) and The Paper Studio's Every Day Expressions (2009):

I stamped a sentiment from Charming Sentiments (2022) on the inside and added the little bonus diecuts that cut at the same time as the larger ones!

Everything was Wink of Stella-ed too, but of course, that never shows up!  Anyway, it was a fun card to make and it will go in my birthday stash!  And I didn't realize that my card is very similar to Jane's! Great minds think alike!  Thanks for visiting today!  Enjoy it and be blessed!

"The ocean depths raise their voice, O Lord; they raise their voice and roar.  The Lord rules supreme in heaven, greater than the roar of the ocean, more powerful than the waves of the sea."  Psalm 93:3-4
