Beach Scene Challenge 1/20 to 1/26

I could see it just fine but I was afraid that I would accidentally cut off one of his legs. I did think about using a magnifying glass but I managed without it.

Quite impressive fussy cutting that you did, Ellie! A fun beach scene too! Nice card!

Trudi, what a great challenge to counter the cold winter season! (at least in the northern part of the country!)
Also, some sweet person (whose name starts with a 'T' and ends with a 'rudi') sent me some beautiful beachy charms that I can't wait to use on on a card. So I will do some creating tomorrow.

Ellie, your card makes me smile! Plus it shows that you have both skills and patience. I love fussy cutting and don't know if I would have been able to master those knobby flamigo knees! (Actually, do flamingo's have knees?!) Great card!

Had fun making these cards today. Trudi gave me five beach charms recently so I had to use all of them! Here are two of the cards that I made. Found the great sentiments on Pinterest. (It is kind of hard to see the charms in detail. The first card has a little silver fish with green and blue 'gem' accents. The other one is a silver starfish.)

Great cards Kathy! I love that you used the charms Katrina and I picked out!

Kathy, nice job! The colors are perfect beachy colors.

Cute slices of heaven, Kathy! I love the flip flop sentiments, too.

Those are great Kathy! I love the idea of a beach with out actual beach images.

Okay, here is my "beach" or almost deserted island.
