Once that calendar flips to March I am ready for winter to be over.....so that's why there is a beach card here today! I did a simple watercolor wash using Mint Macaron and an aquapainter to create a backdrop for my ocean elements.
Inspiration was right outside my back door.......good thing I can think in technicolor......
Amy's sketch is delightful this week at Freshly Made Sketches! Join us!
Stamp Sets: Beach Happy. Sea of Textures
Ink: Crumb Cake, Mint Macaron

GORGEOUS! I love the colors and sweet textures in your card, Linda! So soft, so sweet. Definitely a "beach happy" card.

Ahhhh...the beach sounds wonderful right now. And so is your card! Thanks for the brief escape from winter this morning.
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely soft colors you chose to make this adorable card. Turned out perfect.
ReplyDeleteThat is awesome!!! Love your soft colors, perfect design! Hope that you can see the grass again before July. ;)
ReplyDeleteFabulous card Linda! I can hear the ocean if I listen closely. The scene out my back door is similar and I love the idea of seeing a beach.
ReplyDeleteLinda,
ReplyDeleteGreat CAS card and love the design... plus the soft colors are FAB! Can't wait to see the beach either. So tired of the fluffy white stuff and especially the artic chill! Hugs.

ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely beach scene, Linda! I love your soft watercolor wash on the background and the elements you chose are just perfect! Distinctly different from your photo, too :)
ReplyDeleteCome on, Spring!!!
I just love this card Linda! Oh I'm so ready for spring and summer and warm weather. Love your watercolour background and those fun sand dollars! Perfect colours!
ReplyDeleteLinda... absolutely love you BEACH HAPPY card... the sentiment is priceless.
ReplyDeleteYou are getting quite proficient with the old watercolors there, Miss Linda! That wash looks positively casual - something I struggle to achieve! Wonderful take on the sketch!
ReplyDeleteOh how I love this, Linda! What a beauty! From the watercolored background to those fantastic sea elements, your card is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI love this soft look and the watercolor wash is perfect for the sketch!! What a pretty card (and it really is time for the beach!).
ReplyDeleteI am so done with winter. I feel the same way about March....but I get impatient that spring doesn't arrive fast enough! So that's why beachy scenes are so important right now! Love this! Your watercolor wash is amazing with these images. :)
