I don't enjoy going to the beach, but I do appreciate the gifts I have seen from there. Shells and starfish are gathered, and each one is immensely special.
I chose an ivory-colored A2 card blank. First I stamped the scallop shell in Versamark and embossed it in gold. Then, I stamped the other shell in Distress Ink Vintage Photo. I also stamped the starfish in Fossilized Amber. Next, I cut them all out and arranged them on the corrugated paper and glued them down. Then, I adhered that to the card base. Finally, I inked the swirly border in Tumbled Glass and stamped it directly onto the card blank to indicate the sea's waves. (It just needed something there, and I think that works well.)
