Check out the new inspiration board over on The Card Concept blog!
The theme this week is: Sunset at the Shore
Everyone is welcome to play along using the colors, the theme,
textures,
items, or just anything from the picture as your starting point.
I was inspired by the beach and the seashells to create this clean-and-layered card.
I really like the look of coloring on kraft card stock, but often forget to do it when I'm making a card. This time I chose kraft to match the sandy beach in the inspiration photo, and colored my image with Prismacolor Pencils.
