OCL Sneak Peek - Beach Days

Hi there!  I am happy to be back and posting a card!  :)

Our Craft Lounge is releasing 13 stamp sets this month!  And I am lucky enough to be able to show you a sneak peek for a set called Beach Days.  It is a fantastic, fun, adorable set and I had a lot of fun coloring and putting this card together!


Isn't she ADORBLE???  I used some bling (a FAVE product I cannot live without) on the corners to jazz up the card a bit.  The patterned paper for some reason just made me think of the beach.

Hope you enjoyed this sneak peek.  I'll have another one tomorrow - and Friday will be a BLOG HOP!  Be sure to leave a comment, as I will be giving away a fun PRIZE!!! 

In order to win:
1 - you MUST be signed in to blogger when you leave your comment OR leave contact information in your coment.
2 - you can enter to win on each blog once on each day
