CC&CC#43 ~ Life's A Beach & Exciting News!

Happy Friday!

I am SO excited to share with you that I've been asked 
(by my long-time bloggy-friend Joanne), to be a Design Team Member for the Chocolate, Coffee & Cards Challenge blog!

Thanks Joanne!  It's very humbling and I am very honored to be a part of such a wonderful, creative team!

This week is  "Life's A Beach" with Bugaboo Digi Stamps as our sponsor.

I chose the Beach Baby 2 image...isn't she just adorable??  She reminds me of my precious granddaughter...

I haven't used digi-stamps in a few years, and I must say, I am really enjoying it!  You are able to print them off whatever size your heart desires.

My lil' sweetie is colored in using my Prisma, then I cut her and those "splashes" out and popped them up for added dimension.  I sponged some orange & yellow ink onto the white bg cardstock for a sunny-feel.

My waves were hand-cut and I ran those through my Cuttlebug, then popped-up as well.  I finished it off with the sentiment banner, some Fancy Floss and that cute little shell-charm.

I sure hope you'll head on over to CC&CC and play along with us, we'd love to see your "beachy" creation!

Have a great weekend!

~Cheryl
