June's challenge is Summer, my whole life summer to me means heading to the beach. I was born in Swansea Wales which has some amazing beaches and now I'm lucky enough to live in Vancouver Canada and live about 15 mins drive from some great beaches.
I am happiest when I walking at low tide over the sand with my husband and the dogs, I can't imagine anything more enjoyable.

Your card is STUNNING, Christine. Your watercolouring of the beach scene is perfect. This definitely needs to be hung on a wall. We are all so excited to have you join the CAS Watercolour Design Team. Welcome, my friend!! xx

I'm late in adding my comments because of being away - but better late than never to say how thrilled I am to have you join the CWCC DT! Your inaugural card is fabulous - a perfect depiction of summer and heading out to the beach to go sailing. Beautiful watercolouring of the sand and sea/sky, and great framing.
Some totally awesome watercoloring on this! Super image too. I can definitely see why they asked you to be on the team! Beautiful card.
