Sandy Beach


Another empty beach... an obsession of mine methinks!


This is made with a single image, "Escape" by Penny Black, stamped in colour (I inked the stamp with pens) and added Distress inks for the sky, sea and sand with brushes.

I don't know if you've managed trips to the beach this year but how I long to feel the sand between my toes, smell the sea air and feel both the heat of the sun and the cool breeze upon my skin....
Forgive the waxing lyrical!!

Have a great day,
I am entering the SSS MondaySSS Wednesday, Allsorts, Stamping Sensations,  Ally's Angels, The Artistic Stamper and Lost Coast Designs challenges.

  1. An empty beach is just what we need right now Christine but seems there are not too many to be had. Love the colours with the PB image, look so different.

  6. Brilliant Christine, looks like a very relaxed place to be though I don't know when we will get to the coast again, maybe when the children are back at school if that happens. Hope you're keeping well and wishing you a lovely creative week, Angela xXx
