You know when you're making a card and the finishing touches just won't happen? Had that problem with this card. I stamped and coloured the image with copics, thanks Rach, for the tip off, really enjoyed this bit but it just wouldn't come together with the flower in the top left and I couldn't decide on a sentiment so at 1.15am I decided perhaps I should go to bed and revisit it in the morning.
I'm really pleased with how it turned out, love the summery colours which reflect the weather here today, not like 4.00am this morning when I was woken by torrential rain and a thunderstorm!
I am going to enter this card for 4 challenges
Friday Sketchers - sketch
Cupcake Craft Challenges - beach theme
Creative Card Crew - under the sea
Papertake Weekly - 4 seasons, colour scheme reflecting the season
These are the copics I used to colour in this image, love using these pens but need more practice and more pens!

Hi Sam,
This card makes me want to visit the sea and going swimming! I love the flower it's like a big sun shining down on Tilda. It's gorgeous.
Copics are such fun - they bring out the child in me - I love colouring!
Have a great day.
