Fun challenge! Sand.... I chose stamped. A lot less messy.
I stamped the sandcastle & sea grass, colored them with Copics then added a little texture to the sand by stamping the splatter bg on top using sand ink. The greeting & seagulls were added & the snorkel frog was fussy cut & added on top. I also used the sand ink & splatter bg on the tan panel.
This is also for the DRS Thurs Challenge (sand & sea colors, DRS images not req'd). Thanks so much for looking! Challenge details and colors of Copics I used are on my blog: The Write Stuff

A smile indeed - and a big one. The sandy panel behind the main image is very effective, and I love the little bit of surf along the edge of the shore.

Your frog is adorable! I love the way you fussy cut him and put him in the foreground of your beautiful beach. Nice detail in the waves along the shore.

So cute, from the snorkeling frog to the sweet sandcastle!
