This is my first ever inspiration card....I've been wanting to use my Just Beachy set and couldn't come up with anything until today: http://www.grandinroad.com/jump.jsp?...%2C4728%2C4739
This was just perfect. I colored the flipflops with my SU markers and layered the image with all three colors. I put all three colors of ribbon on the card and popped the image over them. I ran the bottom edge of the card through my big shot with an embossing strip that reminded me of waves. Then I stamped the sentiment in turquoise.
Thanks for looking....I hope you like it.

Welcome to the IC. It's so much fun every week to see what inspires each of us. I hope you'll join in again.
I love the colors you chose for your card. Awesome. Love the ribbon and the embossed edge.
