Digi Haven Challenge Fun In The Sun and Beach Blog Hop With Made Especially For You

Welcome to the Fun In The Sun Beach Blog Hop, brought to you by the fabulous design teams of Made Especially For You and Digi Haven! 

These two design teams have joined together to create some fun in the sun beach-themed projects! Inspired by the concept of the Digi Haven challenge blog, all of our creations we have for you today were made using free digis! 

If you came from Kristy's blog, you're in the right place! 
If you just came across the hop and would like to start at the beginning, please visit Ashley's blog, Made Especially For You. 

Here is my project (I actually made three cards using the same digital image):

Each individual card
First Card (Bottom Left):

Second (Top Left):

Third (Right):

Each Finished Card: 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"

Materials:
Cardstock: White, Tan, Yellow, Purple, Turquoise, Pink and Patterned Paper (Various)
Elizabeth O. Dulemba Digital Image (All)
Spectrum Noir Markers (All)
Mounting Tape (All)
Queen and Company Pearls and/or Rhinestones (Card 1 and 2)
Ribbon (Card 1)

Cuttlebug Embossing Folder Spots and Dots (Card 2)

Nicole Ultra Fine Premium Glitter Extra Fine Multi Diamond Dust (Card 2)

Dark Brown Pigment Ink (Card 2)

Inkssential Glossy Accents (Card 3)
Black Marker (Card 3)

On the first card, the purple card stock is single mounted and the image is single mounted on one side but double mounted on the other side to make it even. I used only "Bling" on this card. On the second card, I used the glitter to look as sand. On the third card, I used Glossy Accents on the glasses, sand and flower middles of the flip flops. Cards 2 and 3 are single mounted. Finally, I dotted the edges of the purple card stock on the third card. Also, on cards 2 and 3, I used the Spectrum Noir Markers for the edges around the patterned paper
