Fun in the Sun

I have a fun card for you this afternoon. My card base is white card stock cut and folded to make a 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" card base. My patterned papers are from Echo Park. The orange mat is cut at 4" X 5 14" and the striped mat is cut at 3 3/4" X 5 1/4". I used my corner rounder to round the lower corners of my card and the layers. My image is from the Pack Your Bags Cricut Cartridge and is cut at 3 3/4". I cut the coconut from some Tim Holtz Kraft Core card stock in a dark brown color and sanded it lightly. All the other layers are cut from scraps. I added some glossy accents to my cherry, orange slice and pineapple slice.

I adhered my image to my card with one layer of foam tape. My sentiment is from the Cardz TV stamp set Fun in the Sun. I stamped it in a Tangerine ink.

I am entering this card in the following challenges:

Splash!

I have a fun card for you today. My card base is a 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" blue card stock. I added a bright yellow mat cut at 4" X 5 1/4" I than used some of the white wash cut and emboss card stock and ran it through my Cuttlebug and embossed it with the D'Vine Swirls embossing folder. I did not emboss the lower inch of the paper so I could stamp my sentiment. I then sanded the embossed paper so the blue color would show through then lightly spritzed it with some Sea Glass Glimmer Mist.  My dolphin is cut at 3 1/2" from the Pack Your Bags Cricut Cartridge. I attached him to the card with an action wobble. I added some blue striped bakers twine and a bright yellow button to finish off the card. I have a video below that explains how I made the card and so you can see him jumping out of the waves on his action wobble.

I hope everyone is having an awesome Father's Day today.

Just Soaking up Rays

Here is a quick card I made this afternoon. I was not soaking up any rays! We were having thunderstorms, lots of rain and hail. This was as close to sun as I could get today.

My card base is white card stock cut and folded to make a 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" card base. I added some orange striped paper cut at 3" X 5 1/4" and a yellow stripped paper cut at 2" X 5 1/4".  Both patterned papers are by Echo Park. I then added white strip of paper cut at 3/4" X 5 1/4" to cover my seam. I stamped the sentiment Just Soaking up Rays in Dandelion Memento Ink, The sentiment is from the "Fun in the Sun" sentiment stamp from Cardz TV.

For my image I used the Pack Your Bags cricut cartridge. I cut all the layers at 3 1/2". I colored all the layers with the colors from the Best Friends Imagine cartridge. For the blue striped pieces on the umbrella and the lounge I colored those from the Bubblegum Stripes Imagine cartridge. I layered everything together and attached it to my card with some foam tape. For my "sun" I used a clear yellow button that I ran some pale yellow and white striped bakers twine through and tied in a bow. I also added some light orange buttons to the lower right hand corner of my card.

I am entering this card in the Vacation Card challenge over at Paper Playtimes.
