OOOOOOOOOpppps! I forgot that I had started this post Sunday night....then decided to put up those clean and simple cards. Sorry to those of you that saw my started message for Monday here....then nothing. :P


This set totally cracks me up! When I first saw it, I kept referring to it as the "beefcake" set. He looks "BEEFY" to me!! LOL! The set also comes with a surf board, among other things, and I was going to stick that in the sand behind the guy and one girl....but then after I cut the first girl out I was imagining a whole group of girls with their hearts a flutter...."ooooooohing and aaaaaahing" and giggling.

The sand is made by tearing kraft colored cardstock, sponging the tears with a darker brown ink to accent them...then I pulled out my old "airbrush" contraption from SU! that you insert a marker into, then squeeze and it speckles the paper. Then I added just a wee bit of glitter to the edges to give a little sparkle to the sand. I also used my faux cloud maker to do the sky.

Wouldn't this be the perfect card for the "Beefcake" in your life?! Or the Beefcake wanna-be?! LMBO!


The "ocean" was made from some unknown paper that I have had for several years. It is wavy looking and I just cut along the wave line.

Don't forget you can buy this months Hanna Stamps new releases in a bundle. With or without the re-released Bridal set. You save $$$ when you buy the bundles!!! All these sets are FUN SUMMER sets!!!

Gotta run to take Orla to the Bus stop!

Have a Splendiferous Tuesday!
