Card Challenge #1

OK, so I decided to do a card challenge. I've had my mind on vacationing in a tropical location. So I was reminiscing and looking through some photos from my vacation to Cancun this year. Man I wanna go back SOON!!! Sigh.

So how do the two relate :: card challenge and vacation pictures?? Well, the challenge involves choosing an inspiration photo, that you took on vacation, and making a card from the colors in the photo. Here are some ideas from my vacation...I'm not sure how I'll choose just one!

I thought this wall was beautiful. I love the colors and how it works with the sconce and the trim.

This is a fun picture. I love the clear blue sky and the crisp lines of the building and the cool shadow.

Doesn't this pic make you wanna be there? So beautiful!

Ever since I was a little girl I have loved looking at clouds...but looking at the clouds in Cancun is my favorit-o.

I also LOVE palm trees!!! I fell in love with them when I lived in AZ for a while. And now my fascination is standing under them, looking up, and snapping the pic. LOVE IT!!

Ah, beautiful!! I love the brightness of the flowers outside our resort, and the softness. It looks so delicate.

Again with the palm trees. How can you NOT like them? The trees coupled with the turquoise water just scream relaxation!

Again with the clouds, but this time as dusk. So tranquil.

WANNA PARTICIPATE?
Choose an inspiration photo, that you took on vacation, and make a card using the colors in your photo. Then take a picture of your card (or scan it) and post it on your blog, along with your inspiration photo. Finally, come back to my blog and leave a comment with a link back to your blog entry.

DEADLINE?
Saturday, October 25 by 9pm MT.

WHAT HAPPENS AFTER THE DEADLINE?
I’ll post my inspiration photo and coordinating card, along with all of your cards!

OK...you have one week. If we get a fair amount of responses, I'll do this again. Spread the word!

Happy creating!
