Headed for the Beach…

Well…I WISH I was headed for the beach! Even though it’s not that warm yet and definitely not swimming weather, it’s so relaxing just to walk along the shoreline. I did however, get in the beach mood with this fun new beach set. It’s been a while since I shared any car designs with & I’m super excited about the new GM release from CHF. Instead of single images, this release is all about sets. I love the fun funky images and great retro flavor.

***Speaking of GM and fun things…make sure you check out the CHF Creative Blog today or soon….you’ll be glad you did!

Enjoy the Ride

To create the background, I stamped the Beach Party background stamp onto some patterned paper and then added the car image as well. You can see a little glimpse of the floral paper I used to create the tree yesterday. I seriously love this paper and I’ve gotten a LOT of mileage from one 12×12 sheet. I’ve created SIX cards with it to date and I still have more to go. Do you have paper that you use once or twice and then paper that you love so much you use every single scrap of it? I’d love to hear what it is!

Have a fun day!
