Here's my take on the sketch:
Verve's latest release is just full of super fun summer images. And I thought this combo of images would be perfect for my nephew who turned 15 yesterday. I used images from the following Verve sets: Relax, Happy Days, and Dude.
The wave was inked up with Versamagic inks, and the surf boards and sun were inked up with Black Onyx Versafine, embossed with Clear ep, and watercolored with Tombow markers. All the edges were ink distressed with Black Soot Ranger Distress Ink. For the sand, I used some fun handmade paper by Prima, and the dp is by Kaisercraft.
I added his initials, in brand form, to one of the boards to personalize it a bit.That's it for today's card. We'd love to see how you use this sketch, so head on over to the CCEE Stamper's Blog for all the details.
Happy Stamping my friends!!

ReplyDeleteI know this is going to sound silly, but I was thinking of you today. I haven't done much blog surfing (pun intended...looking at your GORGEOUS card) lately, but when I saw your link on another blog, I thought I needed to come see what you've been up to! Amazing stuff, girl. This surfer card reminds me of my youth. Don't know if you knew this, but I grew up on the beaches of northern California (Santa Cruz, Monterey, Half Moon Bay). Now I'll be smiling the rest of the day! Hugs!!
ReplyDeleteFabulous!!! Love the sand.
ReplyDeleteOoooh, this is awesome, Tosh....the little surf boards are soooo cute and I'm lovin all the *sand*!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh...how fun!! I totally love your sand hills, and your boards look so cool, Tosh!!
ReplyDeleteThis card left me seriously stunned when I first saw it, and I'm still kind of speechless looking at it again. Absolute gorgeousness, Tosh!
