Hello Crafty Friends and Happy Monday! I hope your weekend was fantastic and if you celebrated the 4th of July holiday, I hope you had loads of fun, food and fireworks.
Today begins a new challenge at The Inspiration Station Challenge Blog. Our inspiration photo this month is very appropriate since we are in the season for sun, fun, holidays and vacations!

I could use a week or two (or more) sitting in a beach chair underneath that tree, that's a short walk from my cabana that sits on the water. I took the scene and used it as direct inspiration for my card, coloring up the "Still Summer" digital stamp from Mirtillamente using Copic Alcohol Markers.
The patterned papers are from the "Good Day Sunshine" 6x6 paper pad by Echo Park. After coloring the image, I've fussy cut and popped on foam pads before placing on a panel that has been inked. The sentiment is from an older set by Hero Arts, and the sentiment strip is also popped on foam pads. To finish, I've added Glossy Accents to the sunglass lenses for a bit of realism.
The team and I hope you join us at the Challenge this month and share your inspired projects, we're always delighted to see everyone's creativity. Until next time, Happy Crafting!
