Surf N Sand… Yes Please!

I can’t deny it, I’m missing warm weather really badly right now. So…to bring some sunshine into my world, I’ve created a card that reminds me of the beach!

Shari Carroll Ranger Thanks

I played around with Peakcock Feathers Distress Ink and Dylusions Vibrant Turquoise Spray Ink on Watercolor  paper…that’s my SURF! Peaking through from behind is my sunshine of Dylusions Squeezed Orange!!

Shari Carroll Ranger Thanks D1

I used the new die from Tim Holtz… Courtyard Frameworks…it’s amazing!!! Love the continuous design!  To finish off my design, I added Doodlebug White Sprinkles to the centers.

I’ve shot a video of my process, hope you enjoy!

Thanks for stopping by today, have a fantastic WARM week if you can!!

  1. I think we are all going thru weather related sadness! Thanks for bringing some color into my morning!

  2. L O V E this card! Those are two of my favorite colors together and it even makes this Central Florida girl long for some sun and sand! Excellent idea and thanks for sharing!

  3. This card is just fabulous! I love the video showing how you created this teal & orange beauty! I especially love how those enamel dots make it all pop! Beautiful!

  4. Love the card, Shari… I also need some sunshine, and warmth! We’ve had over 100 inches of the nasty white stuff “so far!” Michigan Michele!

  5. This is just beautiful! Love the summery complementary colour scheme, the water colouring (salt water, of course!) and the way the surf and sand anchor the scene (the rest of the card being the clean sky). You just picked my day up, Shari!

  6. Love, love, love this one! The colors are fantastic and once again – you hit the mark. So love to watch you create! Thank you for sharing.

  7. Love this card – the colors are great and I do love clean cards…. We too need some warmth back. We live in Houston and the winters are generally very mild. We had ice covered trees yesterday. Never seen that before. It was so beautiful, but oh so cold for us when we are used to warm weather!!
