I started by stamping the girl and the turtle onto X-Press It paper. Once dry, I coloured them in quickly with Copics. I then took the Beach Scene Builder dies and die-cut them all from white cardstock. I then ink-blended all the layers. On the sand layer I stamped some "specks" with Antique Linen ink and a stamp; on the sea layer, I used a waves stencil and on the sky layer, I used a cloud stencil. Then on both the sand and sea layers I added dots with a white gel pen.
I then adhered all the elements together and added a birthday sentiment. I went over the sun with a clear sparkle pen.
Thanks for visiting.
I just realised that the animal should be the focal point at Seize the Birthday. If my turtle isn't focal point enough, then I'll link this to the Anything Goes challenge.
