On 6/15/23 (2 posts down), I posted a card made with Spellbinders Day At The Beach die set that I had not used before. You can see that card HERE. That was my first time using the set, and there were 3 bothersome flaws in the card I made: the polka dot paper that I used camouflaged the "hello" inlaid in the hat brim; the loose ribbons were glued on backwards, and the sea foam was wonky because I embossed it twice, and somehow the cardstock moved with the second inking.
These things bothered me, so I deconstructed the first one and remade it reversing the papers on the hat (you can now see the "hello" clearly), gluing the gold ribbons on the hat correctly, and heat embossing the sea foam without the wonkiness! I also moved the beach bag to the right side.
I really love this card. I am happy with it now and will be making lots of others with this wonderful set.
