Today we are taking another look at the ODBD August Release! Did you enjoy the fun beach theme images & dies as much as we did? So many possibilities and so many colors you can use for these fabulous images. This is also for the Inspiration Challenge on Splitcoast (IC454).
For my super sparkly card, I used the fun Flip Flop Fun set & dies, the Life is Better set & dies, the Ocean Treasures set and the Pennant Swag Alphabet & dies from last month. I scored some packages of glitter paper on a super great deal and as a bonus found out it was sticker card stock! I know Stazon ink would work, but you know…I only use it if I have to. Turns out I didn’t have to…Ancient Page works terrific on this glitter/coated card stock but I also heat set it just to be safe. As a side note, You can also add color to using alcohol (Copic) markers. So after stamping the sand dollar & flip flop border I die cut them. The pennant banner & scallop backer were also die cut & I used the pennant swag alphabet to stamp the BEACH on the flags. The greeting was stamped on some very pale peach card stock & I used a die from the Pennant dies set, cut it half way, took it out, turned the die around and die cut the other half for my double ended flag.Â
I used some A2 matting dies to cut the largest layer and the pink glitter frame. The extra pair of flip flops were stamped, die cut and I added some stickles to the dots.Â

So creative with what you do, turning things around, making things longer – always thinking outside the box. Love the results of this one. The flip flops are a great border and the sparkle is just perfect.
I just love all the sparkle on this fun beach card, Julie! So clever the way you cut your banner and thanks for the ink tips! Lots of fun details to gaze at on this one!
