Beach, Please - Color Throwdown #508

~

Hey, y’all!  It’s time for a brand new Color Throwdown challenge and our oh-so-talented hostess Lynn has a truly great color combo for us this week:  Purple, Green, Yellow, and Red.

~

I used the awesome Essentials by Ellen Leading Ladies – Beach Lady for my card.  I LOVE her!!

I used Copic refills for my ocean background, specifically BV31, BV04, and BV000, and BG0000 for the sky.  I stamped the lady, her towel and the crab using my Misti in Memento tuxedo black ink and die cut them.  Then I colored them with my Copic markers and popped them up on foam mounting tape.

I’m entering this into the Ellen Hutson August Essentials challenge to use alcohol inks.

We would love for you to play along in the Color Throwdown challenge with us!  The details are at the CTD blog.  And please visit with each of the CTD ladies to see their awesome creations!

Those colors! OMWord, I love them and want a whole flower bed of them. My garden sure has changed over the years. If I lived in your area I would take the beach, please, too. Our beaches are gorgeous, but a bit chilly for me. Love how you used your Copic refills for the background and added plaid to her dress. Cute stamps, cute card!

Such a fun card with a great beachy feel and cool background!

Self portrait? Love the colors and your ocean and your spattering of sequins. Clever comes out in the subtle plaid on her frock. I am, however, not sold on the crab. If this is your daily grind, there shouldn't be an ounce of crabby anywhere close, unless he's part of your lunch ;)!
