Pop n Cuts Bathing Suit Card

Had this idea for a while and it sat on my desk half glued together for a while. Still haven't finished outside but will get to it. When I saw the sleeveless dress framelit, it reminded me of a bathing suit. A little snip here and there and voila'! I made the beach blanket with the chevron embossing folder. Ran 1 piece of each color through big shot and trimmed the chevrons out of the calypso coral piece. Used some punched for sun, hat, and clouds. Hope you enjoy it!

Supplies
CS: so saffron, whisper white, blushing bride, calypso coral, tempting turquoise
DSP: sunshine and sprinkles, tea for 2
Ink: soft suede, crumb cake, black stazon
Stamps: perfectly penned
Accessories: Chevron EF, pop n cuts dress form and base, dress framelits, cupcake builder, circle and oval punches, sponges

Bye Bye Manhattan Flower

 

 

This is a case of a card from Julie Pitta who cased it from the Stampin' Up 2011-2012 catalog. I had only recently gotten this EF when SU put out their retired list and this was on it! I remembered loving the sample in the catalog when I saw Julie's card. I changed the colors slightly and added a clay rose.

Supplies:
CS-old olive, early espresso, raspberry ripple, watercolor paper, very vanilla
Ink: raspberry ripple, old olive, early espresso
Accessories: simply pressed clay and molds, old olive and raspberry ripple markers, chevron and manhattan flower EF, extra large oval punch, scallop border punch, sponges, linen thread
Stamps: word play, the open sea
