Carla is our hostess for this week's fun Surf and Sand WTUI challenge which you can find HERE.
I thought serene and peaceful and ended up light-hearted and fun. Stampabilities Surfinâ Snoopy, HA sentiment, Shore Thing for the sand (tea dye on white card sponged with antique linen. Snoopy coloured with Polychromos pencils, Glossy Accents on his shades and nose.
Background is the cloud ef from Taylored Expressions, blue card embossed, clouds painted with white re-inker or dotted with a gel pen.
Iâve made other cards with this stamp before and I couldnât decide whether to go with the Dâvine Swirl ef trimmed down or the lovely Memory Box wave border - so I used them both - embossed blue card and swiped with salty ocean, cut from white glitter card. Plenty of surf here, along with a line of Stickles along the torn sand edge.In hindsight I wish Iâd used glass bead gel. The crab and starfish are from Elineâs Collectibles, both cut from glossy photo paper with alcohol inks. I added an Eyelet Outlet shell brad, as well. Cut with an SB label die, cut another one by hand to matt it, and added it to a cream base stamped with more Shore Thing.

so cute snoopy on your beautiful waves, the sand looks great but should feel better in real life isn't it, I'm so sorry for all who had to cancel their holidays, I include myself even if we were not going to the beach but to Holland

Who knew Snoop was Moon Doggie!? If you don't know who Moon Doggie was, check out the movie Gidget...this is so cute and fun, he is a pro. Using both waves is perfect.

lol. I know who Moon Doggie is.
You could have gone simple but the extra work and features shine...the two types of swirls for the water, the AI bright die cuts, the white clouds.(I would not have thought of that so there's my lesson today). I like brads so the little shell is cutie for me.
