Happy Anniversary to my darling husband!

Today is our 36Th Wedding Anniversary! So many wonderful years!

This card is also for today's CAS26 challenge on SCS! The lovely image is from Flourishes *Beach Life*. It was stamped using Brilliance black! I used an aqua brush and reinkers to colors the trees! After coloring the sandy beach (creamy caramel) I used a versa pen to go over parts that I wanted to emboss with Golden Sand Opaque by Stampendous! This give the sand a wet look! I then brushed in the ocean (bashful blue and brilliance blue) and drew a line using night of navy! I also used a copic marker (BG0000) and a tiny bit of liquid applique! The sky was sponged in using a homemade template and bashful blue!

Thanks for stopping by!

I hope you are having a marvelous day!
