Paper Choice and Cutting the Beach Coloring with Paper Files
Cut the outline from the black cardstock. Do not make the file any smaller than they already are or the black lines get too thin. This makes the all the Beach projects a good size for cards and scrapbook pages.
Stick the outline to the contact paper and re-cover it with the protective backing paper.
Cut out the various pieces from paper scraps in your scrap bin. You can use any color or patter or weight paper you want. Just fill them in with paper that looks good to you. You will be cutting the projects several times to get all your colors. Keep the outlines. They are very useful. I made some projects with them too.
