Wish I was here too....

Gotta get this image of summer out of my head...we start school in the morning! Then this will be my happy place.... :)

All stamps are from Flourishes, and my scene is watercolored with reinkers, watercolor pencils, and markers, then highlighted in a few places with a white colored pencil after it dried. The coconut shell button just had to be...

I sponged my background paper to match a little better...it had a weird pink tint to it that didn't quite go.

School starts tomorrow...I don't feel ready, but here we go anyway!
