I used a tutorial from Splitcoast Stampers to create the background. You can see it HERE. You will find written instructions as well as a short video for this Wrinkle Free Distress Tutorial.
Once the background was dry, I colored my stamp with markers.
Sand & Dune: Daffodil Delight & Soft Suede
Tree Trunks: Early Espresso
Palms: Garden Green
Ocean: Pacific Point
I huffed on the stamp to reactive the ink and then stamped the image.
I then added the sentiment using Pacific Point.
I adhered the glossy panel to a Basic Black panel and then onto the Pacific Point card base.
Lastly, I added a few pebbles, metallic dots, and adhered the Basic White panel to the inside of the card.
