This card has a combination of things that make it useful for me.
We live near the a lake with a beach.
My youngest son is moving closer to us.
He loves frappucinos.
We desperately need rain.
So I started with a white card stock base card.
From another piece of white card stock I die cut a square using MFT Die-namics “Inside & Out Stitched Square STAXX”.
On that piece I made the sand and sea following Stephanie’s instructions...
On another piece of white card stock I stamped the cool cup from Verve Stamps “happiness is...” with StazOn timber brown ink.
This was colored with Prisma pencils, Gamsol and artists stumps.
I trimmed it out with scissors and cut a slot in the square with a craft knife.
This was attached to the card and I stamped the verse from Verve Stamps “Wishing You” with the StazOn ink.
On the inside it says “the happiest of days”.
I believe he will love this new group home and the Starbucks card I am putting in the card!
A very cute and creative card. Who wouldn't want that tantalizing drink at the beach? I sure would. I really like your take on this. I know you are thrilled to have your son moving closer to you.
