I love creating sunset colored cards and the Boardwalk Fun and Beach Time stamp sets are so much fun for Summer cards and I am sad that they are retiring!

Measurements:
BASE: Basic White CS: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
scored at 4 1/4″, 4″ x 5 1/4″ 3″ x 4 1/2″
Basic Black CS: scraps for palm tree dies

Die cut an Everyday Arches die from the 3″ layer.

Use blending brushes and color the bottom of the die with Daffodil Delight ink.

Blend Pumpkin Pie ink with a Blending Brush across the top of the Daffodil Delight ink and a little above that.
Color the top of the Everyday Arches die with Cherry Cobbler ink and another Blending Brush.
Brush the edges of the Everyday Arches die with the Gorgeous Grape ink and another Blending Brush. Heavier on the top and lighter on the bottom edges.
Stamp Summer Vibes sentiment from the Beach Time stamp set (which is on the LAST CHANCE LIST) onto the upper left hand edge of the Everyday Arches die.

Adhere two palm tree dies from Basic Black CS below and to the right of the sentiment.

Emboss the 4″ x 5 1/4″ layer with the LAST CHANCE LIST Soft Waves embossing folder.

Adhere the embossed layer onto the BASE.

Pop up the Everyday Arches die over the embossed layer.

SNEAK PEAK – add the Sunset Sparkle Sequins to the project for an iridescent shine and sparkle to finish off this card rich with sunset colors!
