I made this card for Lisa's Teapot Challenge. I watercolored the card with Tombow markers and a water brush. I love that you can see the sparkle on the water in the pic.

I've never experienced sailing, but having grown up within earshot of the sea and walked many, many miles up and down the nearby beaches I certainly agree that it is a wonderfully peaceful and restorative place to be. I'm sure Linda will love this scene and the sparkling sea.

The beach is one of my most favorite places to be when I seek a peaceful retreat. Beautiful scene.

I am having so much fun looking at all the details on your card and imagining I am there walking on that beach...picking up the starfish and looking at them and hearing the waves and seagulls...LOVE it...I so agree with the sentiment...TFs..:0)

Calming for sure---can just almost feel the breeze with the hat ribbon ties blowing in the wind, the sails are blowing against the sweet colored sky and yes the water is glistening---all a welcome scene.

Early morning walks on the beach are the most relaxing activity I know. The sparkling sea and a chair for Linda to sit in when she tires, you couldn't have made a more perfect card for her!
