Three Tiered Beach Tray

 Hi Friends,

I have really gotten into making these tiered trays.  I made this for a friend from out of town who ended up never making it to my house so I am keeping it!

I love tiered trays because you can gather up little stuff and bring it all together.

Here is the entire tray.  See the little ty crab?  I've had that for years, as well as the sand bowl and lighthouse.

Here is the top tier.  I purchased the signs from Amazon.  Noticed the shredded paper?  They are leftover scraps of paper that I put through the shredder.

This is the middle tier.   The glass mermaid was a find at the dollar store back in March.

See the little box with the flip flops?  I made that.

I added rope and seashells to the "house shaped block" 

The bottom tier.  I love the "Life's a Beach" sign.

I am entering this project into the following challenges:

A Perfect Time To Craft - ATG

Arty Divas - ATG

Crafts Galore Encore - #102 - ATG

Girlz Creative Crafts - #28 - ATG

Thanks so much for stopping by!  I hope you enjoyed my tiered tray!

Hugs,

INAS #140 Colours of Fruit

 Good Morning,

Sorry I have been away, this has been the strangest summer!

The theme for International Art & Soul for this fortnight is "Colours of Fruit" This doesn't mean that you have to use fruit paper, just make your project in fruity colours. (Check out the blog to see what my DT Sisters have created).

I have had this strawberry paper forever so I decided to use it in my layout.

I haven't put pictures on my layout because I haven't decided to keep it or give it to a friend who recently had a baby girl.

I tried just putting the alphabets onto the strawberry paper but I discovered that they were barely readable so I cut out squares with my Recollections Square Punch, inked them with green ink and then placed the letters on top.

Here is a close up of the two pages.

To make the pie, I inked the top with light brown ink, then I embossed it to make it look less smooth.  The strawberry brad is something I have owned for years!  

I am entering this layout into the following challenges:

Creative Fingers - #236 - ATG

Moving Along with the Times - #145 - ATG
