Happy Surf Day Card by Donna Idlet

Happy SURF day!

Instead of sending a birthday card to a friend who loves the beach, how about sending a "SURF" day card like this one created by Donna! 

To create this incredible beach scene, Donna started by creating a sunset using our Retro Sun & Palms Stencil. This two piece stencil includes a layer with a sunset and one with palm trees, perfect for filling a card front. She used warm yellow and orange inks on the sun layer and then colored the palms in traditional green and brown. Then she added a sandy beach by cutting an edge using our Land Borders Die Set from kraft colored cardstock. She added a fun dotted texture along the edges to make it look sandy. 

The star of the show is the kitty carrying the surf board from our Newton's Perfect Wave Stamp Set. Isn't she adorable!? Donna colored the image in fun bright summer colors and added pink cheeks and white gel pen accents too! The image was cut out using the Newton's Perfect Wave Die Set. 

The sentiment "Happy Surf Day" was stamped from the Newton's Perfect Wave Stamp Set onto the sky. 

This would be perfect for a summer birthday card, or you could just send a cheerful summer hello!  To see more beautiful cards by Donna, you can visit her blog, Creative Lady!
