Beach Babe

Hello.  Welcome.  Have you seen the lovely beach themed stamps over at Rubber Dance?  The first time I saw the Take the Plunge set I thought the girl would look great sitting against that cool beach rules notice.  

I wanted to keep it simple, although the blue did become a little more extensive than my original plan LOL.  I used a cream base card.  I stamped the girl with Archival Potting Soil ink, masked and stamped the bye-laws notice.  Then I used Distress Salty Ocean on her towel and watered it down to do the sky/sea.

    She is gorgeous! I love the blue sky/ sea besides her, too. I think it's the perfect tone!!

    She looks cool against the sky and sea as well as the notice! It's a lovely stamp and this CAS approach is perfect for it. Love it!
