Hi there,
A quick post to share a card I created for another one of my favorite challenges ~ CAS Watercolor - June Challenge for the theme 'Summer'.
Living on the coast affords me the luxury of a 45 minute drive to the beach whenever I like, so I thought I would share the view from my beach chair ~
I used Peerless Watercolors for the sky and DI's to create the waves with a Hero Arts background stamp, then gave it a spritz with some shimmer spray. I pieced the boat to have white sails and backed it with foam to add dimension. A few sweet little seagulls and sea shells, and that was it!

Sweet card, sounds like you live near a lovely tranquil spot! Cathy x
that's such a fun card with the boat on the horizon, like you I live by the beach we are so lucky:). Thanks for dropping by at CAS watercolour, awesome card.
Sweet card Barb. I always feel calm when looking at the ocean and your card gives me the same feeling. Beautifully done. Thanks for sharing with us at CAS Watercolour! xx
So serene Barb, great subtle colours!
Barb this is such a fun and fabulous design, that sailboat is awesome!
I'd love to be sitting next to you on that beach, Barb ... what a lovely view, and card!! Hope you get there this weekend!

You are so lucky to live so close the beach Barb! I grew up on the beach, but now am pretty much as far away from it as you can get! haha! Your card is so pretty though! Makes me feel like I'm there! I'm really into nautical right now, so I'm loving it!!
Fun design Barb, and what a lovely view. Hope your view continues all summer long.
Looks like a lovely day at the beach, Barb.
Oh, man, girlfriend, you are making me and all of Blogland extremely jelly right now!! You lucky, lucky girl! Your card depicts perfectly just how lucky you are!! Hugs, Darnell
I love the view from your chair, Barb! A beautiful watercolor scene! Thanks so much for sharing with us at CAS Watercolour!
Beautiful and so calming Barb. I live 1o minutes for the "coast" but hardly ever go - lol!
Simply sweet and beautiful view from your beach chair, Barb. We live 45 minutes from the Southern Oregon Beaches too :-) TFS and joining us at CAS Watercolour. Hugs..
Beautiful card! The way you stamped the waves is so very cool. I live about 30 minutes from the beach and we never, ever go. Just never think about it, I guess.
very sweet summertime card Barb....
Thanks so much for playing along with the CAS Watercolour Challenge and hope you can play along again!
This card reminds me of a peaceful ocean in the sunshine. Such a beautiful CAS card, Barb!
