Happy Tuesday, peeps! I have a summery, seashell-filled card today for two challenges! The Sunday Stamps challenge has a pretty color palette and the Time Out challenge wants seashells:
This is really clean and simple, as I let the shells do most of the work! Here we go:
My seashells are from a retired Close To My Heart set and they were stamped in Secret Sea and Versamark inks, then heat-embossed with clear embossing powder. I colored them with reinkers and an aquapainter, using Petal Pink, Peach Pie, Timid Tiger, and Balmy Blue inks. I stamped a few speckles from You Are Remarkable, and a retired sentiment from Circle Sayings in Mossy Meadow, to match my Mossy Meadow arch:
I did add a few sequins from my stash for some sparkle! Thanks for visiting today! Enjoy it and be blessed!
