June DD/DDA Challenge - School's Out for Summer

It’s June the 20th! meaning it’s time for another Dirty Girl Challenge.  As you know Splitcoaststampers Dirty Dozen Current and Alumni, get together each month and focus on a theme, and this month we had to make a card that screams school’s out for the summer.  

Here’s what we had to follow:

Challenge Focus: Create a project that screams school's out for summer. Do you like the beach, camping, the mountains, bbqing, you name it, whatever screams summer to you is fair game.

Required Element: Mini brads

Restricted Element: Buttons

To see all the challenge cards, you can search on Keyword DCOUT609 in the Splitcoaststampers Gallery.

Because I live in California, nothing says summer to my family like the beach. It’s only two hours from where I live, so we spend a lot of time there.  This sweet stamp set was perfect for this challenge. It’s called Seaside from Crafty Secrets.

Your card is beautiful. I went looking for that stamp but couldn't find it. Is it retired? I love it!
