Sitting on the Beach

Sitting on the Beach cu 06628
Today’s Free For All Challenge (F4A278) asks us to use umbrellas, rain, rivers, etc. I went with the umbrella part, but mine is on the beach.

If there’s a decent breeze, I’d like to be right there in that chair. We are having the worst heat wave here! And my hubby has been on crutches for a week..we had the back re-sodded, the sprinkler system wasn’t working right..Aye yi yi!! Between watering & waiting on him & driving him to Drs., I’ve been hopping around like a one legged flamenco dancer! I told hubs I could just amputate the foot & get him a peg cause we already have the parrot, lol. So far he’s not going for it.

This card is all on one layer..I say one layer because there is only one. I never count the card itself. To me that’s a no layer. I started by stamping the chair, masking, then the umbrella, fence & palm tree. With the masks for all of these still in place, I sponged on the sand, sea & used a scallop edge mask to sponge the sky w/ clouds. The finished card is 5.50 x 4.25 and these are the Copics I used.

  1. I loved your view on your card so much that I had to come over from SCS and see the close up pictures. Thanks for sharing them.
