The beach is one of my favorite places to be. It speaks of summer and vacation time and warm weather and friends and family. All things I love! After a very rough year teaching, summer is my time to relax and enjoy the beauty of nature. The sand, sun and the blues of the water and sky all give me a sense of peace. So I love to create cards that evoke the feeling of the beach! The best way to do that is to use color! These are the 5 best colors to keep you in the summer mood! The calming effect of the blues give the feeling of rolling waves on a lake and the sweet breeze blowing in the afternoon sky. These colors used together bring a sense of calm and peace yet they can also energize you. Here are a few cards that use a color or two of the colors that remind me of the beach.
Best Beach Colors
My love of the beach brought me to these colors and the inspiration that I found in them but your inspiration can come from any of the things that you love, a favorite shirt, a painting, the décor of the restaurant you went to or even from a catalog or ad. Look around, find the things you find pleasing and look at the colors and create a card with those colors!
