My Project
I made another beachy scene, but this time it features a nice bright rainbow! I love the beach, and it’s the first thing that comes to my mind when I think summer. But, since I no longer live near the beach, my summer seems to be featuring more rainbows than beaches. 🙂
I just cut a partial arc from a scrap of whisper white card stock and used it as a mask while I used sponge daubers to make the rainbow. The sky and sea are done with sponges and just a straight mask. I tore a scrap piece of whisper white card stock and sponged it with Crumb Cake ink for the sandy beach!
The cute, little girl in a sundress is from the new Hey, Girl stamp set. I made a simple beach ball with the 1 3/8″ circle punch and my crab has glossy accents to give him something a little extra! Even though the sentiment comes from an older (though still current) Fabulous Four stamp set, this is my first time using it! I love how the sentiments are a little bigger and bolder! A little white embossing really makes it pop! You can get a complete list of all my supplies at the very bottom of this post!
You can check out my new YouTube Channel, Etsy shop, and order the supplies I used from my Stampin’ Up! website .
