Summer CAS card

Hello Friends,
It feels good to be back after a refreshing vacation with near and dear ones. Before I go ahead, I would like to wish all my friends a very Happy Vaisakhi. Vaisakhi is the beginning of a new year observed by the followers of Sikhism. It's one of the most celebrated festivals in our religion.I wish you all a great year ahead, full of love, prosperity and happiness .:)

Sharing a very CAS card that I had made before going on the holiday but didn't get time to post it. Linking it to the following challenges:- Lulupu- Summer CAS cardsATCAS-Far Away , CASology#90-WET and OLS#4- Road Trip(The boat that you see is made by a small piece of paper shaped and stuck  dimensionally directly over the base and the ore is made from a small piece of toothpick, don't know if they are considered to be embellishments or another layer,I would leave that for you to judge if this qualifies a one-layered card)

Here's my take :





The colours I have used from the given colour palette are Blue, yellow, orange, pink and kraft. If somebody asks me where I would like to go to beat the summer heat, my reply would be either some far away destination like hilly region or some relaxing beach with clear blue waters and white sand  where I could just put my feet up and sip on my favorite mocktail and hear the gushing of the waves. ahhhh!!! How I wish to be there right now! (LOL, just back from a holiday and already dreaming about the next one :P) Although it may not be possible right now, atleast I got a feel of it while making this card ;) 

 As you may have guessed, I have used distress inks to make this beach scenery. 

And as for the CASology cue card 'WET', I think it's quite obvious why this card fits there, isn't it? ;)


Did you enjoy this 5 minute escape to a far away beach? :D 

Thanks for visiting me today. Have a great day!
