Here’s what I used today to make my samples
Is this FUN or what!! I love that the flip flop border stamp has a matching die!!! I stamped Life is Better in Momento Black Tuxedo, used the Flip Flop Border die and colored with Copics.
Just some sponging with distress inks and some Mudd Puddles sand added!
I think I need all those colors of flip flops!
I stamped Anchor the Soul in Tuxedo Black, colored with Copics, sponging and a little white acrylic paint for the clouds. You also might recognize Pennants die with the sentiment.
The bread sticks have been super busy creating for you! You can almost feel the ocean breeze and smell the salty air!
Enjoy your ocean journey as you click on each one!

Love the colors and texture on your flip-flop card. Looks really beachy! And the coloring on the second one is wonderful! I can't believe you painted the clouds in--they look so realistic. Great job there!

I am praying for you my friend!! I am so sorry about the loss of your sweet dog friend!! I know how we all become so attached to our pets and they are like part of the family!! HUGS!!!
Dawn, I love the sand on your flip flop card! Which reminds me of a *sand card* you created many years ago and I just had to buy that sand too, but mine dried out :( . Anyway two fabulous cards GF!!!
Love the coloring on both of these it is great. I like them both.
Love the serenity of both of these projects! I believe I can feel ocean spray on my face... sigh...
Your sponging skills are top notch!! The sky and ocean on both cards are so realistic. The one with the anchor looks like a painting! I really like the addition of sand on the flip flop card! Fantastic work!!
Both cards are incredible! Great details....
Both beach scenes are wonderful. Love the texture on the first one.
How happy and fun your first card is :-) Love the flip flop border - goes perfectly with your sentiment! I'm so in love with the anchor image that I'm going to purchase it as soon as I finish all my comments :-) The rest will have to go on my wish list (sigh). Thank you for sharing your beautiful cards.

Did you work hard on these two cards, Dawn? They look so simple, yet I imagine it was hard work. I love both cards! I am really loving all design team cards.
Love the way you did the sand and water in both these cards, but they have totally different looks, fun sand added to the first and your second card has such a peaceful feel!
Dawn - I always love seeing what you've created each month and this month did not disappoint!! Your first card is so fun (love the mudd puddles sand!!) I feel like I'm at the beach with my family - and all their flip-flops sitting around!! And your second project is beautiful with the perfect masculine/tranquil feel. Love your amazing coloring too!! Hugs!
Oooo--I must try some of those Mudd Puddles! Adorable card! And your second card is gorgeous!
Your cards are just beautiful! Thanks for sharing them with us.
Your beach scenes are both so gorgeous! The mud puddle sand is new to me, and it looks so real! Way to rock the new release!
Dawn, oh my word, your flip flop card is so amazing! You just do wonders with the Mudd Puddles....love it! Your anchor card is absolutely awesome, your coloring is always perfect! Hugs and blessings, Sabrina
