Beach ...

Well today I have a little gift box to share by the way of a little suitcase, perfect for sunglasses, sweets & tissues when you say Bon Voyage to that special someone and great to save ephemera from that special trip, tickets, shells and postcards so your happy memories can stay with you always.

I have used Tilda playing in the water from the recent Seaside Collection 2016.  Coloured with Promarkers, hand stitched, ribbon, twine, life buoy charm, bottle & sand, clear dew drops, cheesecloth, Gesso and bark heart.  Flowers & tulips.  I have used a few dies from various Doohickey Box collections.  The suitcase itself was cut on my Silhouette.

The papers are from NITWIT COLLECTIONS loving the colours in this kit, not something I would normally put together but it really works, check out Nitwit Collections for this kit and many others, you won't be disappointed.

Today I want to share a little thank you card I have made using my new found love,

Art Impressions Mini Tryfolds  isn't it adorable?  So as you can see this is the front,

then the bluebells are on the next side and  

the little bunny is on the back. 

The Sentiment & the little butterfly are not included but are from Papermania.

Some ribbon & gems to finish, card measure about 11.5 x 9.5, super cute

I have used Wink of Stella clear glitter on the tulips.
