I've said it before, no stamps say summer to me more than these sets from SU. I love going to the beach & picking up shells. I have a whole vase of shells I've collected over the years. If I was able to hand deliver this, I would've put one of the small shells at her fingertips.
Using an acrylic block I used Shaded Lilac, Picked Raspberries, Salty Ocean, Peacock Feathers, Squeezed Lemonaid & Twigs distress markers. Blush Blossom was used for the skin. I made some lines in the water with the white gel pen! It actually worked today!!
Thanks for stopping by.

Your description made me laugh about the white gel lines! I think we can all identify with that one! I like how soft you colored this Karen. Wonderful job on the watercoloring.

Beautifully colored picture. I too love the water. I agree about the stamp set. It's one that won't leave my house even though it's retired.
