Rolling Waves for Atlantic Hearts 674

 I was taken by this sketch at Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge and had to play along. 

I stamped a panel of Basic White with the watery stamp from Rolling Waves, sponged and stamped in some sand, then added some wave die cuts. Then I cut them into strips of various widths. 

I embossed a Basic White card front with the retired Seabed embossing folder before adhering it to a Coastal Cabana card base. 

When adhering the strips that made up the beach scene I alternated adding them flat and popped up on dimensionals for interest.

I added a sentiment, stamped in Basic Gray and cut with a label from Textured Notes. The 'Happy Birthday' is on the inside. 

On a scrap of Basic White, I sponged some Peach Pie and Pumpkin Pie in an uneven manner, then splattered it lightly with some Pumpkin Pie ink. From this, I die-cut some seashells and starfish and added them to the waterline. 

I finished with adding a few mother-of-pearl gems from the Pearlised Circles pack.If you live in New Zealand and don't have a Stampin' Up Demonstrator, I'd love to be yours.
