Beach Buddies Cards with Isha and Kavya

Hello everyone! Isha here with a pull tab interactive slimline card featuring the Beach Buddies stamps and dies. This adorable set reminds me of the time when my daughters were small and we could take beach vacations :)

To start with I die-cut a few panels for the sand and waves using the Slimline Nature Border dies. Sponge the wave using peacock feathers, mermaid lagoon distress oxide ink. Sponge the sand using scattered straw, wild honey and vintage photo distress oxide. Flick gold and silver paint. Die-cut a white panel, sponge mustard seed, picked raspberry inks to create the sky. Flick with water. Die-cut a small oval towards the right side top  to create the pull tab notch.   

Adhere the wave to this layer and cut an inch long vertical slit where we want the dog to move. There are lots of tutorials available for the pull tab cards and also there is a pull tab add on die by Lawn Fawn, I made my own mechanism after watching THIS VIDEO. I adhered the cute little dog to the slider mechanism, so when we pull it, it comes out peeking from behind the beach bag :)

Stamp the images onto alcohol friendly cardstock, color using Copic markers and die-cut using coordinating dies:
Beach Buddies stamp and dies
Tiki Time stamp and dies (drinks)
Balloon Rides stamp and dies (sun)
Seasonal Trees stamp and dies (big palm tree)
Tropical Scenes stamp and die (small palm tree)

Stamp the sentiment onto the sand. Adhere the sand to the mat layer using 3D foam. Adhere the images, make sure to position the beach bag so the dog comes out from behind it when we pull the tab and I have stamped the word "HELLO" near it. Adhere the panel to the cardbase using 3D foam. 

Thank you for dropping by. Have a nice day!

Hi folks, Kavya here. I am back on the blog with another fun card using the latest release! I love it when I can combine new products with older ones .. especially when they were designed to do just that! For this week, I will be showcasing the new Beach Buddies stamp set along with the Beach Babies stamp set. 

I first started off by stamping various images from Beach Buddies, Beach Babies, Balloon Ride (sun and the clouds) and Tropical Scenes (palm tree).  I then ink blended the top part of an A2 cardstock with cornflower blue dye ink. Later I die cut the ‘water waves’ and ‘land’ out of white cardstock using the Slimline Nature Borders die. I ink blended these pieces using teal blue and sand colored dye inks and adhered all these elements on the A2 card base. 

Finally, I added a sentiment by heat embossing one from the Beach Buddies stamp set on pink cardstock and fuzzy cutting it. Like always, I added some highlights using a white gel pen :) 

I hope you liked this fun beach themed card! Be sure to check back tomorrow for another round of fun inspiration!
