This week's challenge is an inspiration challenge using Lands' End beach towels and totes. I chose this beach towel called Lime Stripe. 
It's pretty easy to see where I pulled my inspiration from--the colors, the stripes, and the name itself. Ready to play along? Click here for all the details.

Paper: Tempting Turquoise, Gable Green, Basic Black, Bazzill textured white
Ink: Fable Green, Basic Black

Beautiful card. I love the colours. I so struggle with CAS. I just can not create beautiful clean and simple cards. I always seem to add that one thing more that takes away from the CAS style.
