Summer Themed Designer Challenge with MCT

Hello everyone!!  Today I get to host the Designer Challenge at My Creative Time.

Summer is in full swing and I thought it would be fun to do a Summer themed challenge, so create anything with a Summer theme and link it up on the My Creative Time blog.
For my project, I created a side step card (I watched a video on YouTube to figure out how to make one) and then decorated it with cuts from my Cricut and the the Pack Your Bags cartridge.  I used the face from the Peachy Keen Stamps June SOTM for the sun's face.
 
I did a little embossing and added some foam adhesive to give the front panel a little bit of dimension and texture.
The waves and sun all have Stickles glitter glue added to them.....I think that it really makes the waves stand out better than they did before I added it.
To finish off my card, I added the perfect sentiment with the Fly Away With Me sentiments and die cut image along with a little bit of Denim bakers twine from The Twinery.

I hope that this card has inspired you to create a summer themed card and join us in the challenge over at My Creative Time!!  I can't wait to see what you create.

Hugs,
Amy
