Good morning! Today I'd like to show you a card I made for the Our Craft Lounge blog challenge OCL121.
~
I'm also playing along in the Play Date Café challenge PDCC135:
~
And the CPS sketch this week - CPS269:
~
These challenges were really easy to combine because I knew I wanted to start with the oval image from the Our Craft Lounge stamp set called Treasured Friend. One of my favorite summertime images! So the beachy theme of the OCL121 challenge and the colors of the PDCC135 worked beautifully together. And when I saw the CPS269 sketch, I knew I had a trifecta in progress!

Thanks for stopping in today! I hope you all have a wonderful week!











































Whenever I see anything to do with the beach, I think of you. I love the beach and haven't been in such a very long time. Your card reminds me of why I love it so much. Well done!

This is so pretty! Your coloring is wonderful, and I like the way you flanked the lovely bow with the two fishtail banners.

What a beautiful image, Broni! And you've highlighted it beautifully with that yummy ribbon and those perfect, little pennants! Thanks so much for playing along with us this week at The Play Date Cafe!
