Serene Seas

Photo Details
Poster: mamaxsix

 Today's first challenge was to create a peaceful scene with a splash of pink. I thought about the ocean. Having lived most of my adult life on the East Coast of VA, and now living in the Mid West, I have to say that even though people have told me that the fields of corn waving in the breeze sounds like the ocean, I still miss those days at the beach! I wanted to use today's technique challenge technique, but couldn't get the hang of it so I went back to my comfort zone with a sponge. I sponged my bg with a touch of pink then stamped my lighthouse. I added an accent of twine with a star brad and found the buttons in my stash so I carved the backs off and glued them on.

This is beautiful! You do very well in your comfort zone as the touch of pink in the blue sky is perfect! Love this image too.
