I so wish that I could be like you wonderful daily challenge divas...I'm lucky to get one card made each week anymore. Sigh. This one covers three (I hope!)
I love Judy's idea to stamp and color on DP, so I started with some Prima Botanical DP. My favorite road trip is to coastal Maine, so that was my option for the CAS challenge and my vacation destination for the Teaparty this week.
The fog is rolling in...stamped the cabin from TE Day in Paradise on Prima DP and colored with Copics. Sponged the bottom with Desert Sand. Added the diecut and punched elements, matted with Midnight Muse & Cherry Cobbler and mounted on a Flourishes white card. PT - 5
I know that this isn't very CAS, but maybe Nancy is asleep by now and won't notice...Thanks Judy, Nancy and Sandy for the inspiration. Thank you all for looking and have a peaceful day.

I have fond memories of lobster in Maine. We traveled the whole coast and we loved the less populated northern part where the blueberries grow all the way to the coast and the many lobster shacks. I great place to travel.

Love your beachy cottage card! Love the waves crashing in and the little crab guy! Perfect finishing touch! Haven't been to Maine yet, but one day maybe? Its on the bucket list for sure! Awesome to cover 3 challenges on one card!

I would love to go to Maine someday, and if I do, I want to stay at a beach house just like this one!

Oh gosh - I'd love to be here. A week - or even a weekend - by the beach would be dream come true. It's a long time since I lived by the sea. That little crab is just sweet - about all I ever managed to catch, too!
