surfs up dude!

It's that time again... CIDT challenge!

This week, the DT was asked to use "beachy colors". Such a fitting challenge since summer started officially this week.

So here is what I came up with... a beach tile!

Paper: old book paper

Cricut: A Child's year

Ink: Distress

CI paint: Fairy Dust

Other: tile

The tile has been covered with a page from an old book. It was then distressed, and covered with yellow ink. I cut an acetate mask with my Cricut and covered the back of it with a temporary adhesive. The mask was placed on the tile, and a blue ink was applied.

Now, it looked fine at that point, but I wanted to add a little something to it. I used Fairy Dust CI paint (which is clear with tons of shimmer) and painted in the masked area. I love how this adds a subtle yet effective zing to the project.
