I found a couple of challenges that require a summer or beach theme. I think those are fun to work on, even though I happen to live in the desert!
I used two different sets from My Favorite Things, “Too-Cool Turtles” and “Just Beclaws.” The background is some blended ink and torn paper for the water and sand. I paper pieced the umbrella, and stamped the turtle on green then colored the shell a darker green. I added a few more details to finish it off.
I am joining the following challenges:
