CAS Bucket and Shovel with Spots

The bucket and shovel image is part of a set of summer themed stamps from Digi Doodle.
The sandy beach is made of torn kraft paper.
The sentiment means "hug" in Norwegian.
I honestly don't know for what occasion I would use this card - what do you suggest?
Maybe not the most versatile card I have made, but I think it's a rather cute one though...

I enter this nto the following challenges:
1) CAS-ual Fridays - Polka Dots
2) Digi Makeover Challenge - Seeing Spots
3) The Squirrel & the Fox - Winter or Summer
4) Make it Monday - Anything Goes

Man and Coconut Trees

For this card I have used both digi and rubber stamps.
The coconut trees are from Digi Doodle and I printed them on patterned papers.
The man is a stamp from Art Impressions. I just love this grumpy-looking aged man. But since he doesn't seem to be in a very good mood, I added a happy-faced sun.
To make the waves of the sea I used a Martha Stewart punch.

Boy and Turtle

I think this Digi Doodle image is adorable!
I wanted the image to be the focal point of this card, so I have added very few embellishments -
a turtle button and a tag for the sentiment.
I made a frame around the image and kept a simple design.
The colors are limited to browns, greens and blues.
