This is for the July Ambassador Challenge #1 over the MFT's forum.
Requirement for this challenge was to use stars. I used stars in the night sky.
Stamp is from MFT 'By the Seashore' collection. The sand was made by placing a doublesided tape (Terrific Tape) on white cs. Sprinkled lots of Tan colored Art Sand on the tape and rubbed it so that it adheres to the sticky part of the tape. Added some dots from the Itty Bitty Background from Stampin Up with Creamy Brown and further sponged the sand to give more color to it. Pieces were later hand torn at an angle to form the layers of the sand. Background sea was sponged in Ocean Depth, Sea Breeze, Aspen Mist, Aquatic Splash and Prussian Blue. Sky was sponged in Sky Blue, Peacock, Prussian Blue and Not Quite Navy using oval scallops to form the clouds.
Clothes and hat on the main image was stampsed on DP from BasicGrey's Two Scoops paper pad in Onyx Black Versafine and cut out and layered onto the main stamped image. Used Lyra Aquacolor to color the dog and logs, Tombow marker to color the skin and sponged the seashells with different VersaMagic Ink pads. All stamped images were cut out and glued to the background. Stamped stars on another DP from BasicGrey and cut it out and randomly glue it to the sky and added Stickles.
Hope you enjoy your day.
