Life's A Beach Cart - Surf's Up Card

I used the "Square Card" feature, then selected the surfboard. I cut this at 5.25", and pressed the "Fit to page" button. To layer the surfboard, I pushed the "Layers" feature, and cut the surfboard twice: once using yellow paper, once using dark brown paper. I cut the surfboard at 3.75". To make a liner for the card, I cut one 4.75" x 9.75" rectangle using Sure Cuts a Lot, then adhered it to the inner part of the card.

I cut "Surf's Up" using the "Title Words" feature; I used the 2.25" setting.

After I glued everything together, I lightly chalked all edges to add dimension.

I purchased a square envelope template from http://svgcuts.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=21&products_id=27. It was a great deal for $1.99 and saved me from figuring this out myself. I cut the envelope per the directions she provides when you purchase the SVG.

Light brown and blue papers are from Club Scrap's "Fossils" kit (2004); yellow and dark brown are scraps I had.

This will be a birthday card for my brother-in-law, who's a big surfer.
