Cards in Envy - On The Beach

For this week's challenge at Cards in Envy, the challenge is On the Beach. You can see the challenge here. All cards must fit into a standard size envelope for easy mailing. 

I sometimes struggle making men's cards but this scene makes this is an easy card to make.

I first stamped the scene onto water-color paper and then I used my

Oxide inks to color the water. I made a mask for the sunset and used Distress 

inks for the sunset. I then cut the card into 3 equal panels and put some black

cardstock behind it. The 30 I stamped in Memento Ink and cut it out

using a circle die by Memory Box.

It's been awhile since I turned "30" but I hope this guy will like it!
