Celebrate! CTD# 354, CCT #385

 

this inchie/grid/quilt style card was creating for the Colorthrowdown challenge #354.  This is a great beach-ie color combination that I don't think I would have put together without this challenge.    The colors are described as:  aqua blue, light coral, grass green and kraft shades.    This greeting is perfect for any celebration.  I used die cuts, punches, metal and plastic embellishments, ribbon, thread and twine.  This card is also being entered into Cute Card Thursday's one word challenge #385.  My word is Celebrate! (stampin Up rubber stamp).

Surfs up!

I loved the inspiration colors in the color throw down challenge # 349 :      

It made me think of my latest die cut purchase (Quickutz Swirls), so I created turquoise waves with it.  The sand and the word banner are die cuts from Papertrey Ink, and the surf board is a rubber stamp that I stamped on painted paper, cut out and slipped in the sand.
I'm also entering in: Ruby's Rainbow #107 at the seaside.
