What do I need?

• Making Cards & Papercraft digital craft paper collection – Beach Huts
• White and yellow card
• Circular nesting dies
• Mixed colour sequins
• Acetate
• Black ink
• Sentiment of your choice

How do I make it?

1. Using white card, create a 12.5cm square card blank from white card.
2. Trim the blue stripey backing paper to 11.5cm square, mount onto yellow card measuring 12cm square, stripes displayed vertically.
3. Place a circle die place at centre of the panel and run through your machine to make a circular aperture.
4. Create a frame from yellow card using this and a larger die.
5. Frame the aperture and attach acetate behind.
6. Fix yellow stripey backing paper to the card front with a beach hut on top so that it appears central when the aperture is attached.
7. Place mixed colour sequins over the beach hut then fix to the aperture panel on top using foam pads to create a shaker element.
8. Stick two further beach huts in place.
9. Stamp a message in black ink onto yellow stripey backing paper, trim into a banner shape and fix to the top of the card front using foam pads to finish.
