I loved the scene in this image here, and wanted to use my new Penny Black stamp. I went a tad brighter in my colors, however!!!
I stamped and embossed the scene from Sweet Sails, then, using masks I sponged color on each of the sections (masking also for the sun). Added a texture stamp to the sand, stamped a few birds, gave the sun a reflection on the water with white pigment ink, and splattered/blotted the sky (with water).
Stamped and embossed the sentiment also. Love this stamp!

Most beautiful, Maura! Your colors and sponging are always fabulous. I like how you added the texture stamp to the sand. Nothing here but beauty....every inch.
