Come to the Beach

I am playing in two challenges today with my CAS beachy card. Waffle Flower June 2021 Challenge - Inspiration Week 2, #wfchallenge2106 here and Tic Tac Toe Challenge #118 here

For the theme of "use a rainbow without using a rainbow" in the Waffle Flower challenge, I actually used the rainbow colors in order, starting with the girl's red bathing suit, then her skirt, top, beach ball from left to right, including the round end piece of the ball. ROY G BIV: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet: A subtle use of rainbow colors.

For the Tic Tac Toe challenge, I chose the top row: friendship, summer theme, single layer. My friend Nancy often says, "Come to the beach" because she lives several miles closer to it than I do and we like doing a girls' morning out to sit and chat...and by the way, our water is this color in the Gulf of Mexico!







Products used:

Waffle Flower - Sandy Toes stamp set (beach girl and sentiment)

The Greetery - Destination Summer stamp set (birds)

Sizzix Thinlits - Geo Floral Frame (made into a stencil)

Simon Says Stamp - Intense Black Ink

Stampin' Up! - Various Classic ink pads

Prismacolor - colored pencils

Ink blending brushes

Check out both challenges...I love seeing all the different ideas people come up with for the same challenge!

Sea you at the beach!
