OCEAN

Happily, it's now the time of year here in the U.S. to be thinking about cooling off at the beach. The challenge for the next two weeks is an "OCEAN" theme, with colors of BLUES, TURQUOISE, GREENS, AND SAND.  You may use the actual theme, or just the colors, in whatever you create. Please post your art creation on your blog, and link to it in the comments section below.

Here are some inspiration images. You may incorporate any of them into your design. All three are from Wikimedia Commons









And here's what our Design Team came up with for this challenge:

I live by the sea, so I had plenty of photos to work with. Here is my entry:

cool, I have to put it in favourites. maybe I try when I am back from my vacation.

A suggestion. Why not start a linkylist? Having only textlinks is free of charge.

Take a look at my meme blog. nfmemes.blogspot.com
