Beaches, sand, sun, and crabs........life is good! I'd love to be sitting on a nice sunny beach somewhere watching the crabs and getting sand between my toes. What a nice vacation that would make! However, it's not going to happen today so I thought I'd just make a card instead.
The images in this set (Life is Good) are from Lawn Fawn. I colored them with Copics and then sponged in the sky and added a sun die. Very clean and simple. Being inspired by the color challenge I have blue/aqua skies, yellow sun and sand, and an orange crab. Ok, so I've never really seen a totally orange crab before but it is kinda cute in that color. I think if you can have a blue crab, surely you can have an orange one too!
I'll enter this is the Lawnscaping Challenge (Color Inspiration) and Addicted to Clean and Simple (code word is Sky).
Thanks for stopping by.............

oh my this is so cute, I just love the cloudy sky u have created. You can share this at ATCAS too, we have the code word sky, it fits perfectly :)
This is so cute Lynn. I love your sky and sun too.
When my oldest granddaughter was about 6, I asked her why she had colored her sky orange. Her reply has lived with me ever since -- "It's my sky and it can be any color I like." I'm sure the same goes for crabs. :-D Too often I forget that creativity needs to be childlike. Love this simple card, Lynn!
This is adorable Lynn! What a cute little crab, fabulous CAS design also! Have a nice weekend!

Simple CAS card, but super cute card Lynn. I used to eat a lot of fresh crabs when my parents were living and in New Jersey. Crabs do get orange when you cook them, so this one looks like he's been out in the sun too long. ;)
This is VERY summery and very cute. It put an instant mile on my face!
This is fantastic! Your sky and clouds are stunning! Great job. Thanks so much for playing with us at Lawnscaping! Big hugs!
