Enjoy the Pier

I really stepped out of my comfort zone for today's card - and had fun doing it, too. I'm usually a cutesy type of card maker AND I absolutely love to color. I very rarely make a scene, well, at least not on my cards {insert giggles} but the Raisin Boat Pier Happiness stamp set just calls for a scene - a very tranquil scene.

I stamped the Tree, Geese and Pier with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and added some Tufts of Grass with Memento Cottage Ivy Ink and some Dirt/Sand with Memento Desert Sand Ink. I colored the Pier with a Copic Marker and then I used my blending brushes to add color to the entire scene. 

I love the "sand" stamp that is in the stamp set; it adds a great textured look!

The "Enjoy" is from the Raisin Boat No Loss for Words stamp set.
