Hi there friends! As some of you may know, Coco & Reno asked me to be a guest designer for them back in May, featuring their June 2019 Dies. Those projects were posted on my instagram account at the end of May, but I thought you might like a closer look at my favorite summer project and what I used to complete it.
As soon as I saw the ocean themed dies I knew I was going to use the super cute cut file, Sand Pail Shaped Box, by Lori Whitlock. The box measures 4.5x1.5x5 and is plenty big enough to hold fun party favors, treats or a small gift to a friend or penpal.
As you can see in the photo below, I stitched around the top and sides of the bucket, as well as the shovel with gold thread before assembling it. I really love the dimension this added to the project.
Then I cut out the large ocean wave using glitter paper in the same color as the base of the pail and glued it down leaving the top of the waves loose to give them movement.
The last step was cutting out the different sea creatures using Coco & Reno's June 2019 Dies and creating a fun ocean scene on the pail. I also fussy cut a pink shell and plant life from the Sunny Days paper collection and added that to the ocean scene as well. Hope you enjoyed my little walk through of how I created this fun Beach Themed Happy Mail.
