How are you all holding up? The sun is starting to shine and the weather is getting warmer. It's a time when we would usually be having days out with family and friends or planning a summer holiday, but instead we are contemplating whether to go to Playa Del Back Yard or Viva Las Lounge!
So in honour of all those outings we are longing for, I created a virtual beach scene to hang on my wall. I can look at it every day and wonder whether the sand still feels the same between my toes!
I have used 'Summer Fun Caravan' for my scene, which includes a camper, a surfboard and Wryn in her summer dress and sandals. You can grab the image set here.
I had to use sandpaper for the beach as it has the perfect look and texture. I die cut slits into it to slide the camper wheel and surfboard behind, to make it look like they are sinking into the sand. Wryn is popped up on 3D foam pads.
