AG Felt Seashore Scene

DQ Kunin Post Aug 25 DD SSea Photo 1

We have enjoyed hanging out at Camp Doll Diaries (www.dolldiaries.com) all summer and seeing many of the great felt projects being created. We are very pleased to sponsor At the Aquarium week. McKayla had so much fun at the Aqaurium she is now enjoying a day at the beach collecting seashells and exploring the shore. Create this seashore scene with a foam core sheet and Trifold display board covered with felt. Die cut shells and sea creatures can be arranged on this felt board scene for added play value! The cute sun and sea creature dies are designed by our Design Team member Laura Kelly for Sizzix. Our Eco-fi brand felt products die cut easily.
