It's summer time so I'm sure you have a pair of sunglasses laying around if you need them to view this card. LOL Trendsetter Danielle Lounds has challenged us to use the following inspirational photo for the new challenge at There She Goes.
Lots of bright neon colors which scared me a bit at first, but when I finally picked the "right" stamp to use for my project it all clicked into place. This little cutie is from the latest releases at TSG, the Aquaholic set in particular. I built her some sand dunes complete with sea grass to play in with her bucket and shovel. Neons aren't my strongest suit, but I'm happy with the card and I hope you'll find a little crafty time to make a card to play along with us.

Summerlicious!! The background colours look great with that little cutie and I love the sand dunes - too cute :)
This is adorable, Tracy! She's so cute! A perfect card for summer!
I think you have rocked this colour palette. It's bright which I love but not harsh which neons can be. You've also paired the brights with those awesome sand dunes (great building) which give the eye a place to reast from the brights. Sweet sweet card. She is adorable. Love the paper patterns in the background. That sun die is calling to me...lol.
That little girl image is too CUTE! Love the sentiment and lovely summery scene...great job!
It's a perfect summer card with the perfect matching papers! love your sand dunes Tracy, they look so real!! You have created a really neat scene here my friend!! Hugs, Ira xox
