Inky Impressions Challenge #35 - Fun in the Sun

Good morning! Today is Wednesday and that means it's time for another Inky Impressions Challenge. For this week's challenge the DT had to choose two things from the word FLOWERS to add to our creations...

F - Faux stitching or Flowers
L - Lace
O - Circles, brads, or pearls
W - Watercoloring
E - Embossing
R - Ripping, Distressing, or Tearing
S - Sparkle

Here is my card:



I used this new image from Inky Impressions called Beach Bound Lili. Doesn't she look adorable all ready for the beach? I also managed to squeeze Water Lili in there. So, the 2 letters I chose and used on my card are: O for circles (pearls) and R for ripping/tearing (tore my "sand" and sentiment paper). There's even a bit of S in there for sparkle (on the Lili's) and R for ribbon.

Some more views of my stair step card:





I cut the palm trees out with my Cricut, Life's a Beach cartridge, used sandpaper as my "sand," and used some small shells for embellishing.

I will enter this card at the following challenges:

A Spoon Full of Sugar - cute & girly
One Stop Craft Challenge - summer breeze
For Fun Challenge - stair step card
