Hi everyone! I wanted to share with you today a beach box card using several Cheery Lynn Designs dies! This is my first box card and it was really was to fun to make. There are so many different sizes of box cards. This size is easy to place in an envelope to mail. It folds flat and is approximately 4 x 5.5 inches. There is a video on you tube by Meg Loven that is a tutorial on the base of the card. You can see it here. Thank you!
On the bottom of the box I used "victorian picket fence" with some "grass border 2" because I was thinking of the fence sometimes you see along the beach with bits of grass.
Here I used "ship's anchor" and I inked the chain in white. I placed a small sentiment on top. The "tiny flourishes" are throughout the box.
I also wanted to add some "starfish" So I made two in white and two in kraft cardstock. Then in the center I used "lighthouses" in kraft cardstock and layered white cardstock behind the window openings.
All the flowers are from "sweet william" and I placed pearls in the centers. The largest ones were using all the flowers and as I made them smaller I just cut some of the larger ones out.
The larger greenery pieces in the background are "fanciful flourish" and I cut them up and placed them throughout the few layers in the center.
One closer view of the center.
Hope you enjoyed my fun beach box card!
