AAA Colourful - Colourboard #7

 Hello,

It's the 15th of August, and time for Colourboard No 7 at AAA Colourful. This month we have a colourboard filled with summery/beachy colours for you to draw inspiration from - sand, sea, sun and a hint of grass. Isn't it beautiful?!

I love the colours, and I love anything beach/sea related, but I decided to look beyond the gorgeous image and concentrate on the colours, so no beach/sea themed project from me....
Or so I thought. Somehow I ended up creating a set of three ATCs inspired not only by the colours of the board but very much by the beach/sea theme of the image. It must be the sailor in me, always drawn to the sea ;)

I started by ink blending the beach and the sea on my cards. I added some foam to the waves hitting the beach using embossing powder. Stamped the footprints in the sand and added a sentiment to each of the cards. Three very quick and easy cards, but very much me.


Products used
Inks: Distress Oxides "Antique Linen", "Salty Ocean" and "Peacock Feathers" by Tim Holtz/Ranger. VersaFine Clair "Nocturne" by Tsukineko
Stamp sets: "Ride the Waves", "Calm over Chaos" and "Affirmations" by Visible Image
