Paper Craft Crew Weekly Challenge #578: Beach Day

Good morning,

It's summer and lots of people are heading to the beach (not going to lie I'm a little jellie!)  For this weeks Paper Craft Crew challenge I decided to make a gift bag with beach vibes and birthday greetings.

I used a retired white striped gift bag (these are too cute and perfect for a little gift and gift card).  I used the Beach Day bundle to stamp and color, using Stampin' Blends, the life guard stand, surf board, and even the waves.  

After they were colored and cut out I used dimensionals to pop them up for added dimension and then stamped the greeting (from the same stamp set) using Pumpkin Pie ink.

Of course the bag needed a little flourish so I took a piece of Iridescent 1/2" Striped Trim and colored it with the Tahitian Tide Dark Stampin' Blends for the perfect beachy blue and tied it around the handles.

This bag is sooo cute and perfect to send birthday greetings!  Make sure to check out the other projects the design team is sharing and we would love for you to play along and share what you create.
