Here is my first submission as an official member of the Hearts-N-Crafts, Etc Design Team. If I may say so, I think it turned out pretty cute...lol
I used the Authentique Seasons Paper Collection (Summer 1, 2, 3, and Enhancements). I also used a few scraps of cardstock, ribbon, and raffia. I used various colors of Versa Color Inks and a White Pen to add the final details.
Everything I used can be purchased at my favorite scrapbook store, Hearts-N-Crafts, Etc. in Covina, CA. Of course, you can also see the original page displayed next to the paper collection. Whoo Hoo...my first one in the store...lol.
The border and embellishments at the bottom of the page were cut with the Cricut using mostly the Life is a Beach cartridge. I also used the Everyday Paper Dolls for the sand dunes/sand castle and the Base Camp cartridges for the "at the" lettering.
Don't have these Cricut Cartridges? Did you know that Hearts-N-Crafts, Etc rents cartridges for an extremely reasonable price? Have a Cricut but not sure how to use it to the fullest? Did you know that Hearts-N-Crafts, Etc has Basic and Advanced Cricut Classes? Also Gypsy & Cricut Craft Room Classes? That's why they are my favorite store...they go out of their way to help you create!!!
Keep on Scrappin,
Donna :-)
