Beach Babe!



I bought this beautiful frangipane flower along with many others from Calico Crafts. They come in many summery colours and are great on a more exotic card. I thought that it would suit a beach/summer themed card, and I have had this paper for while so I decided to put them all together & this is the result! I used 2 designs of paper & layered them as you can see. I cut a scalloped circle frame from spotted paper & added a small ring of the word paper around the aperture. I decorated the frame with the frangipane flower & a beach ball cut from the patterned paper. Some spotty ribbon & a spotty fabric brad adorn the flower. I cut the Beach Babe sentiment, stuck it into the aperture & glittered it.
Carts used:
Scalloped circle frame- Wild Card
Patterned ring around aperture- George (silhouette feature enabled)
Sentiments- Lyrical Letters
Hope you are having a great day enjoying the glorious sunshine today, and thanks for stopping by!
