Hoping to sea you soon

I'd like to enter this card for the AAA cards challenge #45: it's so hot and DT team call
and
Inkspirational Challenge #88: photo inkspiration

the photos are very similar so pardon me for combining them.

I made a strip of sea and beach by  sponging on Distress inks (a diy made purple similar to dusty concord, blueprint sketch and mermaid lagoon for the sea and fossilized amber for the sand, the foam is just card left white)

The diecut from Joy Crafts! is also coloured with Distress inks, I die cut it on watercolor paper and used twisted citron and peacock feathers and ripe persimmons and spiced marmalade)

the sentiment is also from Joy Crafts!
