Beach Baby by The Stamping Boutique

This is the first time I've ever colored a stamp that's a scene.  When I first saw this image I could picture it in my mind colored and I knew just what I wanted to do with it.  Oh my big plans!  I have to say coloring this was more difficult than I ever imagined but I'm really glad I tried it.  I'm not saying I didn't enjoy coloring this I just think I'll get better with practice. 

This is a digi stamp made by The Stamping Boutique!

It's colored with Copic markers and for the sky I used Tim Holtz distress inks and then colored over it with a Y13 marker. 

There's also a challenge at Papertake Weekly for a fun summer theme, I think a beach theme will be perfect!

This is just darling. I love the coloring you did. So amazing. You should put this one up on OPUS GLUEI this week for the Beach theme. We really don't care if you made it today, last week or even last year. We just want to see your works of art.
