hi there! i am playing along with the cas-ual friday challenge today. it has been a while since i have played along with this challenge, but i saw this week was to create a card about something you might see in or at the ocean and i was in! i would make every single one of my cards about the ocean if i could, lol! :) so here is my super-cas card. just some cardstock, an old a muse notecard and retired stamp, and the missing you sentiment from paper smooches circle of honor set. so speaking of paper smooches, check out this announcement! i am the guest designer for september!!! to say that i am excited is a severe understatement!!! paper smooches is my favorite company and i am so honored and thrilled!!! i have had a perma-grin on my face since i found out! :D i hope you are having a wonderful day, and thanks for visiting! :)
Congrats on your guest spot! You'll have a blast :) This card is perfect!! I love that umbrella. Thank you for joining us at CAS-ual Fridays!

Very nice card. I love the sense of scale you have created, the distant horizon, with just some pieces of paper. Congratulations on your guest designer spot, have fun!

Congrats on your GD spot! I'm a beach/ocean girl myself - love your card. It would be a great entry for the Less is More challenge this week too (tearing).

That is such a great card! I'm a beach girl, myself, although, since I make cards for OWH, there's such a time lag, I've moved on to making fall cards. Yours is evocative, too, with that empty space below the umbrella. As if the missing person should be there. I really, really like it a lot!
