SAND BETWEEN MY TOES ~ PIXELS AND PAPER

Hello ! Today is a little cooler , so nice to be in my scrap room, no need for the fan  blowing everything around.  Seeing we have just been on a beach holiday, I thought it was the perfect challenge at Pixel and Papers to get a summer layout done .
The challenge , a summer scheme and the prompt.


and this is my take
Sand between my toes



Chipboard pieces are from A2Z Scraplets and the flair is from Funky Flairs Studio  . I simply rubbed gesso over the chipboard pieces to give a white washed, beachy affect and with the sea horse I added some blue shading with pan pastel.


I tried not to get too much of my ugly old feet in the photo. 
Thanks so much for calling by, I really do appreciate any comments.
Hope you are enjoying what is left of the weekend.
Love, Peace and Kindness

Roo out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of S u m m e r....... so serene and relaxing Mary. Love that Kraft paper and the whole beachy babe vibe. It's going to be a 40C here tomorrow and one of the Grand Boys is coming over to get a Kings cloak made. What fun! This is a new fave for me Mare Bear :D

Aaaah! They are loose threads.... the chippy looks great with the gesso..& the photo is just so evocative of beach holidays. Lucky it fitted so well with the challenge, eh? Bet it was getting scrapped anyways!!!!!
