Home Beach Home

This week at Scrap It With a Song we are scrapping along to the song 'Feels Like Home' by Chantal Kreviazuk. Absolutely GORGEOUS song. I hope you will come play along and try your hand at winning a lovely set of 8x8 digi papers from Toucan scraps. Remember you don't HAVE to use the lyrics as a whole in your project. You can use a word in your title, the over all theme, journal the lyrics, or even just let the embellies or photos display the song lyrics you choose.

On my project I chose not to use the exact lyrics from the song. I let the title inspire me to think of what feels like home to me. Without a second of further thought I am already at the beach in my mind. So here is what I created for this challenge:

The papers are both pre printed with these designs. They were scraps so I can't tell you the brand, but I assure you they were both bought recently at Joanns. The sand paper was torn at a curve to give the illusion of the waves from the underlayer of ocean paper lapping up on the shore. The palm tree and beach chair are diecuts that I received from my friend Cathie. Check out her Etsy Shop. She seriously has THE cutest embellished die cuts .... EVER! As a matter of fact, the sun came from her too with the flocked center and glittered rays. I put my sentiment on a tiny circle to be in the center of the sun. Since that is the brightest layer to the card, I thought it stood out more. :) The sun is seriously the nicest made embellie with so much detail and texture and is still for sale here.
