Two weeks ago Danielle challenged the Prettie Girls to use a texture-y material on our card (not including ribbon or Primas). So cut/die-cut some felt, cork, vinyl, fabric or whatnot and plop it on your card. Heck we could even use marshmallows. hehe!
I decided that my texture-y material would be cork so I decided to create a beach scene for my card using the cork as the sand part of the beach. I used Paper Pretties "Beach Bum" stamp set to make my card.
I added more texture to my card by using the spots & dots cuttlebug embossing folder to add the background on my blue base card.
I used the largest labels 2 nestabilities die to cut out my white panel and the cork ... I then created my teal layer by attaching the white card to the teal and cutting around it. The sun is created using 2 star punched shapes that have been layered together.
Don't forget to check out what the rest of the Pretties girls created for this challenge:
