Card Swap August 2015

Another week has passed me by in a blur. I really don't know where the time goes. Today I have a card that I sent to my swap partner for a little group we have in Britain. The theme this month was "The Beach".

 I used a vintage photo from the internet that I've had for ages as the focal point. The papers are from the Polkadoodles Pretty Tuff CD.

I cut two banners and coloured them with Pan Pastels before adding the half pearls. The double bow was dyed with Antique Linen Distress Ink.

The postcard sentiment was printed on the computer and the shells are from a Docrafts download called Ahoy There!
If you live in the UK and like to swap cards ask me to add you to our friendly little group. You'd be more than welcome.
I'm now going to take a few days off to spend with my family but hope to be able to get to your blogs to see what you are all up to.
