The Card Concept #198 Summertime Fun

 Hey there Crafty Friends! A new challenge has begun at The Card Concept and I'm sure you'll be get lots of ideas from our inspiration photo. 

The background was stamped with Hero Arts Color Layering Waves and I used a Kaisercraft stamp to add texture to the sand. 

The top right cushion reminded me of a threatened species beach bird we have in Australia, called *Hooded Plover. The chicks are so cute. I used a die from Amazon, coloured with Karin Markers.

I was inspired by the picture and colours to create a Clean & Layered Water-colour Card.

Remember, an inspiration photo is a starting point for inspiration. Will it be the colours, the overall theme, the texture, the actual items and/or something else that will inspire your card? 

I hope you'll visit The Card Concept Challenge Blog to see what the rest of the team has created and will be inspired to play along in the challenge with us. 

Choose a design style (or combine styles), create a card, and in your blog post, let us know what inspired you from the photo, what style and/or styles you chose and don't forget to display our inspiration photo and link back to our challenge :-)
