Ahhh, the first challenge of summer is here!! Let's get the summertime feeling going with a great color scheme! Brown and taupe are reminiscent of beachy sand, yellow for sunshine, and blues for the great colors of the ocean and clear summer sky!! The Prima Elements are centered around the collection that embodies summer: St. Tropez! St. Tropez Ephemera, Papers, and Flowers! The mood is bright and summery with tart lemons, wind-blown sand, gorgeous waves, mosaic tiles and detailed summer sandals! The textures are totally summer-filled with water, basket-weave, textured paint, and picnic-ready gingham!
"I love the fact that you guys, over the other side of the world, are enjoying your summertime! We, however, are heading into winter and our swimmers have been put away for a few months. I just love this summer time palette and had to create a layout featuring my wee boy in all his beach bod glory. The colours are so fun and so was creating with the St Tropez collection." ~ Stacey Young

"When I first saw the new MIP, I immediately want to create my own beach background for this picture of my son and I, taken by my husband last summer. I used the White Sand Texture Paste to create the sand zone and for the foam, I used 3D Matte Gel mixed with salt." ~ Nathalie Dalibard
"The sea zone was created with the Color Bloom Summer Sky and Fairy Pond. Of course, I added a lot of gorgeous Prima flowers, some shells and chipboards."

"Travel the world and capture amazing memories - all set for my upcoming vacation. Let the adventure begin. This month's challenge is oozing with vacation. How can one not be inspired by it? Amazing textures in the mood board, along with colours and elements caught my attention. Here is my weekly spread in the awesome Breathe Planner with the beautiful French Riviera Collection and stunning tassel." ~ Nupur Patel
"My happy place is the beach. This piece reminds me to enjoy the present moments and to rest and relax into the beauty of the sea....sunshine....and lemonade. I hope you get to soak up the sun this summer and breathe in all the goodness and joy that comes from it!" ~ Mindy Lacefield
"In my country, Brazil is in the winter, but despite the season, we have a vast expanse of coastal cities where the summer shines all year. One of them is Maceiò, and I took a picture of this beautiful city to create this décor piece for my studio! A clock in boat format and I liked the result. I used plaster, rust paste, wax, acrylic paint and some flowers!" ~ Luciana Warnowski

"In perfect time for summer is the new collection from Prima by Frank, St. Tropez! I used just about EVERYTHING in the collection kit! And my inspiration was from the bicycle you will see in the photos below. I tried to mimic it exactly! Only adding one or 2 extra items to it. It was really fun to try and replicate a piece from the paper! Hope you like my project! Hugs!" ~ Miranda Edney
