Crazy For CAS Challenge #26: Waves

So when I saw what the challenge over at Crazy For CAS was I immediately knew what I wanted to do.  They want you to use waves on your card somehow.  I've had this stamp for a while and hadn't inked it up yet.  I thought, oh I have the perfect stamp for this!  So here it is...


I love this sandcastle stamp (Studio 112, $1.00 bin at Joanne's).  So, I stamped it with timber brown StazOn on watercolour paper and used my watercolour pencils to colour it in.  The waves are freehand and didn't turn out too badly, I think.  The sentiment is an old one from Scrappy Cat and actually has a gift box image but I masked that off.  I love the wave effect of the sentiment too.  I layered it on some metallic blue paper (Colorbok) then cream card stock.  Viola!

That's all for now.  Just trying to get over a nasty cold at the moment.  Today the first day that I'm feeling somewhat human.  :-). Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!
