Create with TLC is hostessing a Blog hop with many wonderful vintage images today, The theme: Life is Better in Summer! Each stop will have a free digital image. There is also a sentiment that is available at the Create with TLC link on the hop!
If you did not arrive here from Carol's blog- that means you 'hopped in' at a middle destination- the links are below so you can hop and enjoy some summer inspiration, and grab a few new digital images for your collection. Please do stop at Create with TLC and leave her some love!
All of the DP and cardstock are from Stampin Up. The stencil is Sweet Stamps and I used distress ink Barn door and Brushed Corduroy. I cut the sentiment out by fussy cutting and added a layer of Brushed Corduroy cardstock behind it.
The starfish dies are unbranded. I used a Sakura Gelly Roll pen to accent and add a little sparkle
My, Oh My, to be a lady in the old days!!! Even at the beach! Here is the sweet image-just click on the image, Rt click and save.
And, the sentiment on my card- check on the TLC blog for it! For a closer view:
The next stop on the hop is Vickie, who has a fab project AND a video! Her blog is HERE and also below in the hop list.

Oh, Shelly, I love your take on that sketch! Fabulous image, so perfect for a summer 'hop' along the boardwalk or beach. Thanks so much and now I'm off to finish up the hop.
Wonderfull card with the two ladies on the beach.
Love the colour choices Shelly. What an awesome idea to die-cut the sentiment into a starfish shape.

Oh Shelly I do love your card and what more having that Vintage look. I don't get the opportunity very often to make a vintage look card and that is why I did the same. I do love your image and your wonderful colours. Great card and thanks so much for sharing it with us over at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 and good luck.

Great take on the sketch with the lovely vintage shot - nice work here! TFS
Wonderful card and image.
Shelly your card is just beautiful. That is a great layout for the card. Thanks for hopping with us.
I love them and I love your card. Their image reminds me of something my best friend and I would be doing together and enjoying each other by the last she lives in another country than I do but I taught her how to stamp and so even though were a long ways away from each other we still keep in contact but that picture Reminds me that even in the distance from each other were still close friends. Thank you for sharing that card and image
Fabulous card!
LOVE the image and your design!
Thank You for sharing, inspiring and the freebie :)
Oh very pretty Shelly! What a glorious card and the perfect sentiment to match! And I agree! :)
Thank you

A wonderful card Shelly - love how you have used the sentiment in the star diecut. I much prefer the freedoms we have today on the beach that the restrictions of then.
Blessings

I love this layout and fabulous textured starfish with this awesome vintage beach babes image from TLC. Beautiful work, Shelly!
Shelley this is such a fun vintage creation. Love the sea stars and of course Paulette's wonderful image.
