By The Sea...Give Away

This is my latest Design Team submission over at SVGCuts.com. I enjoy making a card, more than just a card. I like creating a scene. The tropical paper from American Crafts is my favorite color palette, so that was the inspiration for this color theme. This would be nice to give to someone ahead of the occasion so they can have it sit out and enjoy for a longer time. Customize for any occasion, and it is a perfect addition to any gift, or heck, a gift all it's own!





This was a really fun project and I hope you will give it a go! I'd love to see what you come up with. Leave me some love on this post, I'd love to read your comments!
