Happy B-Day Beach Scene Card

Created this birthday card by creating a Beach scene. Versatile as it is it can be used for a boy/child or older boy or an adult male. Used Die Cuttin Divas sketch. Used Kraft cardstock for Base & for the strip that I used a beach scene edge punch on. Embossed the beach scene stip with D'vine Swirls embossing folder. Used Sand & Waves scrapbook paper. Distressed the edges of the Sand scrapbook paper & beach scene strip. Rolled the edges of the Waves paper to give it a framed 3D look. Used Life is a Beach Cricut cartridge for the Sun. Stamped the Happy B-Day sentiment on a Tim Holtz Tiny Tag & tied the tag to one of the buckets in the beach scene edge punch using some string recycled from a blue jean tag.
