The husband of one of my niece's has a birthday at the end of this month. They have two small children, the youngest a babe in arms, so I don't think he'll get much chance to relax, but he can dream!
I coloured both the Lili of the Valley stamp 'Take it easy' and the Personal Impressions seagull stamp using Promarkers. Using masking I then created the sky, sea and sand using distress inks. I then matted and layered it onto yellow mirri card and white card and added a sentiment.
I wish to enter this card into the following challenges:

Oh wow Mary, this one is right up my street, super masking, colouring and composition. And you have shown how a normally cute image fits perfectly into a scene.
