Surf's Up, Birthday Girl!



Another card that reminds me of summer and that Beach Boys song, "Surfin USA." Oh how I wish we had a beach around here! Makes me want to take off to Florida...Though you wouldn't catch me on a surf board like this little gal. I probably wouldn't be able to stand up on one! I'll leave that for the more adventurous people out there. I just need to get in the water up to my waist and I'm happy.

For this card, I used the sketch from Some Odd Girl. The image is also from Some Odd Girl. I just love their images and the big eyes they have. This one is perfect for a card depicting summer. The white background paper with the spots is from an old summer stack by DCWV. I just bought this new plaid and striped paper from hobby Lobby. The flowers are felt ribbon from Michael's, and I used white skittles for the centers of the flowers. The buttons are from some old clothes I threw away during my cleaning spree earlier today. I added glitter to the hair, shirt, parts of the water and parts of the surfboard, to add some sparkle.

I am entering this card in the following challenges:
