This is for Kittie's super HYCCT challenge - Scene of Serenity. I must admit that here it's rarely warm enough for the beach to be a serene place at sunrise or sunset - but I've seen plenty of both in Greece!
Stamped the fences, sponged the sand (tattered straw, tea dye, antique linen) sea (salty ocean) and sky (too many to remember) with the sun masked off. Added in the grasses afterwards, and the seagulls and Verve sentiment. I used the negative of a label I'd cut to put on the inside of a black card base for the frame, inking it with Versamark and embossing with various EPs for a weathered look. Then I added dots to the sentiment to tone it down a bit.
