Hello my friends!
It's time for another fabulous challenge at The Card Concept!
This weeks challenge is to create a card in these lovely summer colors.
And that is exactly what I did here Those colors spoke to me, they said "summer breeze Kay". :)
I can't tell you how much fun I had creating this one. I love this die from Paper Smooches and have been wanting to use it. When I saw the colors in the inspiration photo, I just knew I could make it work with my little boat! I die cut all the different pieces and made my ocean scene fresh with flying seagulls, then I cut out all the pieces for the sailboat and adhered it all to my scene with foam tape. I just glued the fishies and the seagull straight down. Didn't want them popping off my page :)
Supplies:
Dies- rounded corner mat- Spellbinders, stitched cloud- Mama Elephant, water- My Favorite Things, Seagulls- Lawn Fawn, Boat and fish- Paper Smooches.
Paper- Stampin Up and Recollections white
Thanks so much for stopping by! Stop by and see what the other designers have created and I hope you'll join us for the challenge at The Card Concept!
I am also adding this card to the current Paper Smooches SPARKS challenge, anything goes!
Hugs,
Kay :)
What a fabulous scene you created. I just love what you do with a bunch of dies.
ReplyDeleteWoweee, Kay! Another fantastic scene! Oh what you can you with a die (or a bunch of them) is just amazing. I can almost hear those seagulls squawking. The colors you chose to represent the challenge colors are fabulous and every piece placed wonderfully. Fantastic! Happy Smiles...

ReplyDeleteThis is so fabulous, Kay! I love how you paired your patterned papers for the sails, and as always, how your layered your papers and elements! I don't know how you do it, but your designs are so 'eye-catching', and this is no exception! I really love this card!!! Definitely a 'Summer Breeze'!

ReplyDeleteI have missed quite a lot, what a sweet card, great balance of colors and design :) awesomeness !
ReplyDeleteFirst, apologies for having fallen behind in commenting - but the gazing and admiring has occurred! Just call me 'slow poke' with a sprinkle of disorganized added for good measure! Arriving late, all the 'good' comments have been taken, so I'll echo the others: absolutely, completely and totally FABULOUS!, Kay! Your 'background' of having worked at a marina is shining through with this charming, splendid, eye-catching sail boat scene! A wonderful interpretation of the challenge theme; inspired and inspiring, as always! Gosh, but I love visiting your blog....
