Happy Surf Day Card by Larissa Heskett

Happy Surf Day!

Today we are headed to the beach with a beautiful summer card by Larissa!

This card features the adorable image of the van carrying a surfboard and luggage from our Beach Bound Stamp Set. She colored the van beautifully, leaving a bit sunny highlight on the center and added white gel pen accents. The image was cut out using the coordinating Beach Bound Die Set.

For her card, she created a gorgeous summer beach scene. She used the tall palms from our Retro Sun & Palms Stencil Set, applying two colors to the stencil. She also added rhinestones to the centers of the palm tree leaves to look like coconuts! Next, she cut along the bottom of the scene using our  Land Borders Die Set to make a hill. She colored the hill using brown ink and added speckles to make it look like a sandy beach! So cool! The whole scene is framed with a postage edged panel that was cut out using our Framework Die Set. 

 

What a beautiful scene. Who wants to head to beach now!? 

To say hello to Larissa and see more of her creations, you can visit her over at her blog, Larissa Heskett Designs.
