Here is my card for the challenge:
I picked my favorite vacation destination - the beach! Mind you, you'd never see me on the beach in a bikini! I started with a card base of SU Pear Pizzazz and layered with Soft Sky and patterned paper from the Webster's Pages In Love, Palm Beach & Game On Petite Papers pack. For my beach scene I merged two images from Mo's Digital Pencil - Beach Elements I and Little Umbrella. You can find them in Mo's store here. I printed the merged image on Copic X-Press It Blending Card and colored with my Copics. I used my Copic airbrush for the sand, water and sky. I added a bit of Stickles and Glossy Accents to the main image.
Here is a close-up of the fun image:
My sentiment is from Paulette at Create With TLC. A few Wild Orchid Crafts aster daisies and a cherry blossom finished my card.
I am also entering my card in Mo's DP2 Challenge #142 (anything goes), Craft Your Passion #117 (chillin' and grillin') and the Tuesday Throwdown #104 (summertime).
