Made this card about a week ago, using Theresa Momber's wonderful Sandy Beach Tutorial on YouTube. I was attracted to her idea of adding wave with white pigment ink!
I got a lot of this wrong, but it was fun and relaxing...you know that sentiment that says "stamping is cheaper than therapy"...
Using plain white cardstock, I masked the horizon and used blending brushes for the background:
Gina K sea glass for the sky, distress salty ocean for the water and Stampin' UP! creamy caramel for the sand, leaving some white where the water would meet the sand. I also added some light brown Tombow marker, #977 for contrast and to dot the sand.
Once dry, I used a paintbrush dipped into a Gina K white pigment ink pad to brush on areas in the water that would look like waves and areas where the water meets the sand. Theresa Momber does a great job explaining how to do this in her YouTube.
