Another beach scene card this time made for a forum Round Robin that I'm involved in. The card has been received so I can safely put a photo on here.
It is actually a scene that would have worked great with the acetate style of card in my post below, but this time I decided to do a flat version. The background was created using Crafty Ann's beach scene digi. I must admit I did remove Ann's chairs from the scene to make way for my stamped ones. Ann was fine about me doing this as she loves to see her digis used in different ways.
I think the two ladies are by Pink Cat Studios, but the stamp has been in my collection for so long I'm really not sure. Great stamp though and it seems to make an appearance each summer alongside the lovely smaller shell stamps that were also in the set.
The scene was built up in stages - printed on blue card first of all and then white so that the palm tree could be coloured using Promarkers and finally sandpaper cut out to create the beach. Time consuming, but great fun.
My card is for the challenges at...
- Sir Stampalot - Lazy Hazy Days of Summer
- Practical Scrappers - Stash older than one year (my stamp is way older than that)
Off for some retail therapy now. Have an amazing weekend everyone.

Fabulous card and lovely sentiment. Really love your sandpaper beach.
We could do with some sunshine being sent up here as I think it's rained every day at some point over the school holidays and some days it's been blimmin' baltic!

Anne I love this scene, what a great idea to use sandpaper too. The stamped ladies in deckchairs look great and I wish I was there with them.
