This card began with the background, another Distress Ink experiment. It made a lovely beach scene so I used one of my Isabella's Sketchbook digis, colouring her with Copics and cutting her out and adding her to the background. I drew the lines back in on the sand using a Pigma pen.I've used the Sketch Saturday layout for my card, which I'm also entering for One Stop Craft Challenge's theme of Summer Breeze. Basic Grey's Challenge this week is Punch It; I've created flowers using my DP and assorted punches. Crafty Cardmakers has Distressed for its theme this week so the background fits their challenge too. One final challenge: DareU2Digistamp has the theme Anything Goes.
The background is Broken China and a little Weathered Wood at the top, with Scattered Straw and Spiced Marmalade below. I've splashed plenty of water on with my fingers to get the colours to run together. The DP is Basic Grey Cupcake, the sentiment is from Elusive Images.The flowers are made with 2 Woodware flower punches and the smallest Nestie circles.

Ooh! Another brilliant beachy scene. And very elegant. Looks like something you might find on the Riviera in the 50's. Very grand. Love everything about it.
