Couple on the Beach

Aloha dear ones,

Wouldn't it be lovely to be able to cuddle on a warm sandy beach, watching the sun go down? I love this stamp set/image, especially making anniversary, wedding, engagement, or just lovey dovey cards.

I used Copic Markers on the couple, after first stamping them in Cocoa Brown (Memento inks). I cut out a mask and used Memento inks to sponge around some soft sand, softly glowing sunset, and distressed the embossed layer behind it.

Made for the SCS VSN Challenge by Lee, "A Motto of Design" (the Olympic Games). The 3 letters Lee wanted us to incorporate into the challenge are: C, A, F. I used Couple for C, Anniversary for the A, and foliage for the F. I am officially 11 challenges behind tonight lol.

I'm sure that most of you are asleep, and I am quickly catching up with you. My eye lids are so heavy, I will be going to sleep asap.

Thank you for visiting my friends!
May your lives be overfilled with love!

With Aloha ♥
