I die cut a frame out of sea foam cardstock and layered gauze for the background. The sand dollar die cut was watercolored and sprayed with shimmer spray, then popped up on the gauze. The sentiment was stamped in dark brown ink and then traced with a brown Wink of Stella pen. Lastly, I drew a line border with the same brown pen. Here's the stuff I used:
Cardstock: Paper Zone Sand (for card base), American Crafts Sea Foam
Stamp(s): Little Yellow Bicycle
Ink: Colorbox Chocolate
Dies: Sizzix/Tim Holtz Sand & Sea
Other: Wink of Stella Fine Glitter Dust pen, Recollections clear rhinestone, DCWV Gauze Paper, Distress Marker (Pumice Stone), foam adhesive
Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope a beach trip is in your future :-)
