This is guitar-totin' Toni, and she's heading to the
Huck and Skinny Music School party on the beach. All the budding young musicians are gathering for a sunset sing-a-long. They're hoping that the soft breezes, sounds of the ocean and the entire repertoire of their friend Anthony's favorite songs help cheer him up. Anthony, who was seriously injured in a terrible accident is the Destination Station this week.
Started out with the Pail and Shovel digi from Happily Scrappin' (thanks Leigh) then drew the palm tree and stamped Easy Rider. Colored all with Copics then clear embossed. Masked off the sun and water and sponged the sky. Masked the ocean and sponged the beach, then masked the sand and sky and sponged the ocean. The guitar was colored with Copics, clear embossed and cut out. Took my craft knife and cut around Toni's arm and sleeve, then tucked her guitar underneath. Finished it off by doodling around the edges.

Wow, Hilda, your beach setting-sunset background rocks, all on its own!!
This sweet lil' gal pedaling to the beach based music lessons is the picture of determination - something I am sure Anthony possesses - coming through all that he has, to be able to get back to life as he LOVES it with his music - Great scene here - from the foreground to your amazing Background sky and sun! Such a super card for the teaparty and AJ!! Thanks for joining in!

Amazing, love this scene, hard to believe it all started with the little pail and shovel! Love the way you included the guitar too, I was wondering if it was part of the stamp, it fits so perfectly!
