Relax

When i think of coastal - I think "relax"!  As a matter of fact, my bestie and I are planning our weekend right now - and we're thinking "relax at the coast".  I used my Meljens image from Whimsy Stamps.
They have such a great variety!  Go check 'em out!  This sock monkey is off to the beach!  Well, looks more like a deserted island!  That works!  It would be relaxing to be by yourself!  Those of us with kids appreciate our "alone" tiime!  it's not too often!  Anyway- I cut the waves and the tree on my cricut - the sand/island was freehand!  I cut the clouds also on the cricut and then used my Stampin up ballet blue ink to make the sky over the masking of the clouds!  Too cool, eh??  Anyway- thanks for popping in - I'm happy with the way he came out!
