The Dare to Get Dirty Challenges are continuing over at Splitcoaststampers, and today’s card is playing along in three of them.
The “sand” in this beach scene was made by tearing four strips of cardstock, distressing it with ink, and layering.
There is a row of embossing across the top of the card. I love this cute little folder.
The card is also entered into a couple of challenges out there in blogland:
