Today's Thursday Challenge on 365 Cards is:Use the sun, sand, and surf to inspire you.
I don't know about you but sun, sand, and surf all equal surfboards and surfer dudes but since I don't have a surfer dude stamp it's gotta be a hula girl..lol. What better Basic Grey to use than Hang 10?!!! Sheesh, how ironic that almost a year ago I posted this Surf's Up card using the same Basic Grey paper and inkadinkado stamp??!!!
I don't think that I'll ever tire of the whole tropical/surfer theme...I paper pieced the surfboards....went through 6 different sheets of the {now retired} Hang 10 paper...note to self to let 'd' know about that since he's getting this very valuable BG card..lol...I'll have to translate it to techie-ness since that's his dealio, not basic grey {gasp!}.
So glad that today is Thursday which means that tomorrow is Friday!! woot woot! I've been really enjoying all your comments these days...you guys crack me up! I so enjoy this whole blogging thing...
Be sure to check out 365 Cards next week...it's Scor-it week...we each received a Scor-it mini so we'll be overflowing with great cards/projects!
What a great card. The papers are perfect and I adore the stiching.
