Beach Towel Inspired Birthday!

OK, I'm back with this week's CAS challenge from SCS. I browsed through the Land's End beach towels and totes until I came up on this beach towel. I thought it is fun and colorful and something I'd like to use for inspiration. I picked this, and matching colors, a few days ago but didn't actually make my card until today.... which is when I decided to change from Green Galore to Kiwi Kiss without consulting my inspiration piece. Oops!

Well, you still get the idea I think! I also used the sketch that I posted yesterday hoping to do better on my second try. I'm much happier with this one!

I used papers from a variety of old SU papers: Bella Rose, Berry Bliss and some a print pattern that I think is in Purely Pomegranate... Everything else is current, I swear! (but not for long)

Hope you like it! Why don't you go check out these CAS challenges- they are fun and simple and usually pretty fast.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend!
