4 challenges inspired today's card...Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge // #AHSC589 ...A sketch challenge!! I used this sketch as the starting point for today's card. I love the tearing and the layering...perfect for my beach scape!!
CAS Colours & Sketches // #542 ...A color challenge!! Melon Mambo, Boho Blue, and Calypso Coral are the colors called for in this clean and simple challenge!!
Time Out Challenges // #TOC269 ...An "inspired by words" challenge!! The quote for this challenge comes from Lilly Pulitzer..."It is always summer somewhere." Several layers of waves and several layers of the sun setting...a perfect clean and simple summer scene!
Addicted to CAS // #264 ...A clean and simple "code word" challenge!! BEACH is the code word given for this current challenge!! One simple sentiment, a stitched circle sun, along with some torn card stock and you have a clean beach scene.
Update: Yahoo!! This card was chosen as "Top 3" over at the Atlantic Hearts Sketch challenge!! Thanks to the design team for this shout out on my "sea you later" take on their sketch challenge!!
Today's second card was inspired by 3 challenges...
Freshly Made Sketches // #FMS648 ...A sketch challenge!! This sketch was the building block for today's card. I punched out squares from Granny Apple Green designer papers and then layered my strawberries and flowers on top.
The Color Throwdown Challenge // #ctd805 ...A color challenge!! Red, green, and yellow are the colors called for in this current challenge. An since the picture was of a basket of strawberries, I just had to use strawberries on my card!! Allsorts Challenge // #AC793 ...A theme challenge!! SUMMER DAYS is the theme for this current challenge!! I love early summer when the strawberries are fresh for the picking!! I used Stampin Up's Poppy Parade ink, Granny Apple Green ink & designer papers, and Daffodil Delight ink to ink up their Sweet Strawberry stamp set.
