Have you checked out what's new at IO?
Summertime dies!
Today I have three cards to share using the new Flamingo Set.
To create the BG for these guys I have used Distress Oxides. 
For the sand, I blended Antique Linen onto Bristol Smooth paper. 
The water is Broken China. I spritzed a little water all over to get the inks to react.
Once dried, I covered the water with masking paper.
Using Antique Linen, I stamped the Cover-A-Card Sand stamp over the original sand.
The flamingos were colored with Copics. Their wings were curved with a ball stylus and have silicone under them to keep their dimension.

DIE697-W FLAMINGO SET
DIE687-K TAKE ME TO THE OCEAN
CC216 COVER-A-CARD SAND


Here are a pair of shaker cards made with the Flamingo Set. 
The set has 6 dies!


The frame for the shakers are from the All-in-One Frames Rectangles-2.
The Mini Shell Set is an old favorite! The die cuts were colored with Copics.
