1st Communion card

I made this card last month for a friend's daughter's 1st Communion. 

 

I found and bought 3 packs of these DCWV gate fold cards with vellum envelopes at the 99 cent store.  They were in a totally random spot, but score for me. ;)  The glitter paper and congratulation stamp is SU and (congrats) is embossed with pewter embossing powder.

 inside:  found the saying in splitcoast stampers message board.  printed on vellum.

TFL!

Sun your buns!

It's my DT feature day at Fresh Brewed Designs, and I chose to use the rubber stamp Beach Bums.

I got some paper from the Bo Bunny Key Lime collection and as soon as I saw this tag on the sheet, I knew I was going to get out my FBD Beach Bums rubber stamp to use with it.....  :)  Here's my card:

I used core'dinations cardstock and sanded/tore it.  I also used a background rubber stamp by A|S and embossed it with white puffy embossing powder. 

Happy Summer!!

PLUS an optional BOX CARD TECHNIQUE  at Splitcoast Stampers

I ran running and screaming when I saw the box technique. lol!  So I took the easy way out and only created a mermaid theme card.  This is the beautiful Cordelia in the Sand Rubber stamp- my very first FBD rubber stamp and is a favorite.  Waves and crab are a|s.  The yellow background mesh was packaging from some baseballs my ds got in his Easter basket.  It looks better IRL ;)
