If you’ve followed me any length of time, you’ll know I love to do scenes! I did this side-step card with The Mighty Sea and The Sea, another in the Blessings Collection.
It’s colored with Copics and air-brushed. The waves are white acrylic paint with Copic shadows.
I used Mudd Puddles sand and shells for a very realistic look!
The Breadsticks have done a fabulous job showcasing this release! Be prepared to be amazed once again this month!!!
Now, it’s time to hop on to the
ever-so-talented Angie
Thanks for stopping!
