Life Is Good



My creation for PDCC135 sprung from the wonderful blue door in this inspiration photo.  My mind was already in beach mode and as soon as I saw this photo, the little cabana from Wilson Designs' Teeny Bikini popped into my head.  I used PTI's Farm & Barn Background Basics to apply a fine woodgrain to the door and I went from there.  After two more school days I can go to the beach pretty much whenever I want until September. Life is good.  Thanks for stopping by today.

Supplies:
Stamps~Wilson Designs Teeny Bikini, PTI Background Basics: Farm & Barn, Background Basics Medallions, Back Pocket Basics.
Ink~PTI Hawaiian Shores, Canyon Clay, SU Pacific Point, Memento Tuxedo Black, VersaFine Onyx Black.
Paper~PTI Canyon Clay, Hawaiian Shores, White, Neenah Solar White, SU Pacific Point.
Accessories~Dimensionals, Quartet Cork Crafe Sheet, MFT Die-namics Catch A Wave, PTI Back Pocket Basics Die Collection, Taylored Expressions Clouds Impression Plate.

So so cute! Looks like a fab place to spend the summer and I love the cork sand - no sand in your bathing suit! LOL! ;)
