Surf’s Up

Hello again HH friends;

Time is certainly going by quickly and hopefully sooner than later, everyone will be able to out and play again.

As the High Hopes Stamps has recently opened the vault and re-released the Men & Boys Collection, I have another fun card for today.

Tubing Gabriel  is having a great time as the surf is up and is no dooubt enjoying himself, while doing it safely.  After stamping and colouring the image with Copic Markers, I used a Double Stitched Rectangle Die to cut it out.  This is a very CAS card with some twine and enamel dots to finish it off.
