Magical Monday - Summer - Be Inspired

Aloha and E Komo Mai to another fabulous and for today "memorable" Magical Monday at There's Magic in the Air with Paper Cupcakes!!! {Happy Memorial Day}

I got to set today challenge using any image from Paper Cupcakes. So to kick summer off, I want to see how this poster of Hawaii inspires you! As always, inspiration is whatever works for you...and could include the style of the picture, the colors, the images in it, etc!!! So what will you come up with?!?


Here's my take...

I used the super cute Mouse Friends - Beach Ball & Book. You may recognize this from the card I made for the blog hop back in December. He's so cute that I just had to use him again!! This time he's colored with my Prismacolor Markers and layered on patterned paper and sandpaper!! Here's the inside


Here's the other challenges I was inspired by for this one:
1. Charisma Cardz Challenges! - going round in circles
2. Cupcake Craft Challenges - Summer Delights
4. Eat, Sleep, Stamp - sketch
5. My Time to Craft challenge - vivid greetings cards
6. Pixie Dust Studio Challenge - going round and round
7. SophistiCat Challenge Blog  - Splish Splash
8. The Pink Elephant - gotta wear shades (use bright fun colors)

Thanks for stopping by and I can't wait to see what you come up with!!
Aloha,
