The scene is created by masking with torn paper and sponging on ink. I tear the water line as straight as possible; I like torn paper to create waves.
After all the sponging is done I remove the oval mask and stamp on the tree. To create a mask so I can sponge on the tree trunk color I cut out the truck and discarded it and use what we would normally throw away.
Prismacolor pencils were used to add color to the leaves and coconuts and IÂ’m thinking nowÂ…why didnÂ’t I do that for the trunk!
Signo white gel pen was used to add the water foam.
My faux brads were cut from cardstock with the Cuttlebug Tiny Tags die, glued to the card and covered with AleeneÂ’s Paper Glaze.
The base is stamped repeatedly with a small background image without masking.
The image panel and border are popped up with pop dots.
