HSS Challenge #102- Beach Theme

Morning Stampers!! Today we will enjoy a challenge from Hand Stamped Sentiments- IT'S A BEACH THEME!! My daughter came in to chat while we were getting ready for church on Sunday and she informed me of how many weeks she has left of school- insert FREAK OUT!!!  But it made me long for the summer days at the beach and the pool- ME LIKIE THE SUN!!!

So I decided to get my daughters assistance with my challenge project for this week.  She and I worked on it together, which was memorable and FUN!

We made the palm tree using the new blossom punch in the occasions mini and the small oval punch.  I embossed the coconuts with the polkadot embossing folder- they look really cool in person.

the clouds are of course from the cupcake builder punch- so cute!
And my daughter said that we HAD to add glitter- like mother like daughter... it isn't complete with out a little BLING!!!
I used the silver glitter paper for the title- BUT we tinted it.  Super easy and FUN- I will hopefully get a video out real soon for this tutorial. :)
I hope you enjoyed this project today, pop on over to Hand Stamped Sentiments and share with us your interpretation of our BEACH THEME!
