I have always loved the idea of these little beach huts - a great place to put on your bathing suit but the best ones would have showers available to wash off the sand from one's day of frolicking at the beach, right?
Today's musings come from this fabulous photo mood board at Just us Girls ...
Something tells me these kids don't give any notice to all that sand - you'll have to use your imagination to see that the view is FROM the huts...
This sweet little parade of peeps were stamped for me years ago by a sweet friend -
thanks, Lisa - and for your darling reminder on your DT card this week.
I was so happy Lisa stamped them in Copic-friendly ink!
After coloring the kids, I created an ocean with broad strokes of Copic markers, and then
blended over the top with CP Skylight ink.
My water's edge die is an oldie from The Cat's Pajamas and provides a
spot for a bit of Wink of Stella that I also splattered on my ocean!
The JUGS designers have provided sand-pales-full of inspiration - go see, then PLAY! Thanks for stopping by today!

Awwwwwwwww...this image is absolutely ADORABLE Michele and colored perfectly too! Makes me wish I was heading to the beach!! (By the end of the week that might be a good idea!!) Should have known this was a Lisa image, but you have totally made it your own with the water and sand additions...totally delightful scene!! Hugs. :0)
ReplyDeleteWell, this is just precious! What a darling image, colored to a "T". Your scene from the window is pure delight, Michele!
ReplyDeleteYour sweet little peeps are on a mission to stir up all the same and splash to their hearts' content -- very sweet image and card!
ReplyDeleteAnd off to the beach we go! Hooray for summer! this is adorable!
ReplyDeleteJust adorable! That little troupe look ready to build the sandcastles of legend, for sure!
ReplyDeleteSoo sweet! Reminds me of that Waffle Flower beach set...
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun inspired card! That "little parade of peeps" -- to CUTE! Thanks for joining in at JUGS
ReplyDeleteOh what a fun beachy scene. your ocean is fantastic.
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable image and colored beautifully, Michele! And then you did that amazing ocean! What a great card!
ReplyDeleteWhat a delightful and charming card, Michele. Those sweeties are adorable! Thanks so much for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThat's me in the middle! A hundred years ago. I could not love this one more, Michele. Right up my sand dune... I love the way you did the water. Just a pure delight!
ReplyDeleteDarling little parade of beach goers, Michele. I love the ripply edge of the ocean.
ReplyDeleteI love those beach huts, too, We don't have them here. They'd probably blow away. I'm certain those cute kids don't care one whit about the sand in their bathing suits. I spent a lot of time in a wet bathing suit on the beach when I was growing up and I sure didn't care. Really an adorable card, Michele!
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute, I am glad you have finally used it. Your beach looks pretty amazing too xx
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, this is such a darling card Michele! I love those little beach huts too, but always wondered what they looked like inside. I'm guessing it is just kind of like a tent or something like that....empty one room building or like back in the 50's, tents. LOL I can imagine how messy they would be with these kiddo's changing into their swimwear, they other clothes all over the place. LOL I think these kids are adorable, I love the way you colored each of them. So darling! I love your sand, your ocean-I can see the waves rolling in and the depth! Love the shape and the stitched line showing the beach line. Such a darling card and that sentiment is so true! I'd like to be sitting on that beach, watching these cutie pies going by. Sitting on the beach today here, would be cold! No sun either and temps in the low to mid 60's. Isn't it supposed to be summer? At this rate, I'll never get in the pool! Hugs, Brenda
ReplyDeleteSo happy you could put those little fellas to good use and so happy the landed in the JUGs gallery! Darling card, Michele!
ReplyDeleteThis row of kids is so cute and you've created a fabulous scene for them to play on! Great card!
ReplyDeleteThe way I see it is one kiddo just came out of each hut ready for the day at the beach! Sweet scene….and beautifully done!
