Beach games

Hello crafters, 
Although the British weather yet again disappoints, my thoughts are definitely turned to sunny beaches... 
 

The stamps are all Crafty Individuals: "Sandy Toes & Salty Kisses" (CI-459) and "By the Sea" (CI-454).
I used Versacraft and Brilliance inks to stamp and coloured the image with pencils.

I think the card is crying out for additional details, maybe some stitching or inking all around and some more detailing of sea and sand with pencils but... I chickened out having already spoiled my first attempt!

Thanks for coming by,

  1. Let's forget about the non summer weather and concentrate on your card lovely Christine, the images so remind me of days gone by with a bucket and spade and unless my memory is playing tricks the sun used to sine more often.

    Many thanks for sharing with us at Allsorts challenge.

    Bon, c'est sûr, tu aurais pu travailler un peu tes ombrages... Si je t'avais en cours, c'est ce que je te dirais en tout cas héhé ;-)))
