The Beachcombing challenge at As You See It #372, lends itself to various interpretations.

I too live in beautiful British Columbia on Vancouver Island to be precise. Anything to do with water and beaches is big around here and in West coast Tofino people surf year round. I decided to go with the surfing idea and this card is the result.

It started with the scrap piece of PP that looks like water and then I used an unbranded die to cut the sand. I added a bit of colour to the sand using some blending and a stamp from Crafters Companion. Then I added the 2 pieces together and glued to the card front. I pulled out an older die set from Hero Arts and die cut the surf board and the lady surfer. Using alcohol pens and a Prisma pencil I added colour to both and popped them up with foam tape. The foiled sentiment is from Open Studio. I keep forgetting I have these and I’ve now deliberately left them on my table so they are front and center.

This card came together quite quickly and I’m happy with how it turned out. Thanks for spending time with me today, you are appreciated more than you realize.
