Happy Birthday - Taylored Expressions

Hi all! And a Very Happy 1st Day of August to you!! Wowie!! Where has the time gone?! Can't believe here we are about to be making Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas projects again, lol!! Weren't we just doing all those a short while ago?... lol ;-) It sure feels like it from where I sit lol, how about you? ;-)  Guess time flies when you are having fun, No?... Well today Im back with a quick post, to share my latest Taylored Expressions creation inspired by TE's Ride The Wave Stamp Set! Just Love this Awesome Masculine/Beachy set! So Perfect for Summery cards for the Fella's in our lives! 8-)

I stamped my Fun Ride the Wave Surf Boards onto Choice Snow White CS with Memento Rich Cocoa and colored them up with a combination sponging with Rusty Hinge, Wild Honey, & Scattered Straw Distress inks, some coloring with my Distress Markers, and some subtle shading with my trusty Copics too. I cut them all out with TE's Coordinating Surfboard Die and popped them all up with a bit of foam tape onto my Beach scene BG focal panel.

For my Beach scene BG, I added my Fluffy clouds with a template I created with TE's Cloud Border Die, Tumbled Glass Distress ink and a small stippling brush topped off with TE Wave Border Die cuts, and a torn strip for the sand created from Crate Paper's The Pier 6x6 dp's... My Mats and BG were created with TE's Choice Kraft CS, Bazzill's Lakeshore CS, a Woodgrain EF and some shading with Vintage Photo Distress ink... 8-)  Okay, that's it for me today, I am off to finish up my LAST project for TE's up-coming Awesome August Release! Whoo Hoo! So stay tuned!...8-)

Here are the items I used for my project today...
