I LOVE how the Pennant Row sentiment works with the seascape. I want to be there, NOW!!!

I stamped The Mighty Sea, and with a little masking, extended it to fit. Colored with Copics and white acrylic paint. I sponged the clouds using my cloud template then added some paint with my finger and added some shadow with Copics. The waves are also painted, and I used Mudd Puddles sand and shells at the bottom.

I stamped Butterfly Corner in Memento Slate Grey, colored with Copics and stamped the Butterfly Single, colored and hand cut to pop it up.

Dawn, You've already knocked my socks off - I don't need to go any further LOL!!! Your first card is all I needed - you have a way of taking this Might Sea and turning it into a painting every time. I've tried to do that and cannot even come close - I have no idea how to do it. I just can't get over how beautiful it is. But then there's your second card - oh my goodness it is also a beauty!! I love your vibrant colors and wonderful butterfly on this one - so stunning!!
Hugs and Blessings,
Audrey
