The Featured Stamper for today's challenge on SCS is Peanutbee aka Denise. Here is a link to her wonderful gallery. I copied and pasted a picture of Denise's darling card that inspired me below.
Seaside Girl by Peanutbee
I chose to use Rubbernecker Beach Party images to create my project. I love the little umbrella and chair image and wanted to keep the same soft look and feel of Denise's scene. I chose to work with River Rock and Bordering Blue ink. I stamped the images, colored and cut them out. I created a sandy beach with a dry brush in a stipple motion,masked off the water line, sponged it with the blue and then sponged in the sky with a lighter layer of the blue. I attached the cut out images to the scene. I used a seashell background image for the large base and embossed the long layer with a Cuttlebug folder. I love this soft scene. I have gotten stuck on beach cards recently.
