I love your gallery & chose your 1st up load, Watercolor Riley Moose seen here: Mutnik-WaterColor Riley Moose by Mutnik at Splitcoaststampers
I kept your layout, but my image panel is larger. I changed stamps, did not watercolor, instead of a bow, I popped up the glass of Long Island Ice Tea - just for Cathy & put it in the opposite corner. The ice cubes are covered w/ crystal effects.
I stamped my images then sponged on the clouds w/ my large cloud template over a mask for the sun. Then masked the clouds to complete the sun. I sponged the sand & the grasses. Then using a blender pen & chalk, I colored the rest.
Cathy, enjoy your time as FS. You so deserve this honor. I'm a huge fan of yours.
Thanks for stopping by to take a peek.

Looks like a great place to be!! Much better than here! Had a real chamber of commerce weather day here yesterday and now we are back to cold and rain! Well, not everyone thinks 60 degrees is cold, but when it's all yucky and rainy, too, it's too cold for me!
Very pretty card...love that little refreshing drink in the corner!

Karen, how way cool that you chose one of my first up-loads. Mine was so plain, but yours is just so delightful. Wish I was on that beach with that drink in my hand. It is a long island ice tea, isn't it? hehe.....wonderful and serene. Love your card. Thanks for taking the time to play! TFS :0)
