Aloha!

Just a super quick post today! We have been invited to some friends' house for lunch and swimming in their pool. My kids are ecstatic! I needed a note that I could send to the hostess as a thank you once we return later in the day, so I put together this easy card.
Today's Clean and Simple Challenge on SCS is to use dry embossing. The easy way to do this would be using embossing folders and the like, but I don't have any kind of tools like that! So I punched a flower from heavy card stock, overlaid it with vellum, and used an embossing stylus to trace around it several times to make my flower border.

I used some cheap sandpaper from our local Dollar Tree (is this becoming a recurring theme in my blog posts???) to make my sandy beach where surfers have propped up their surfboards after hittin' the surf. My DS helped me comb through my collection of epoxy brads to find a sun one to round out my beach scene.
