Everything's Beachy! Take 1

Living on a tropical island, it was a must to get Ellen Hutson's Everything's Beachy stamp set. I used the man with surf boards on this card.

Now it's the ladies' turn!

First on the beach (inspired by Carissa Wiley's card) but I went with the beach colours of beach sand and turquoise sea. I added the white edge of the waves with a gel pen.

This view is more from the sea towards the beach.

I wondered what it would look like from the beach looking towards the sea ... I'll do another card soon.

Beach Shaker Card

I've had some beach sand in a container in my studio since one of my kids did a school project ... and that was at least 6 years ago! I've been meaning to make a shaker card with it, and now is the time.

See how the sand moves ...

And the inside ...
