Seashells

 

I am a Jersey Girl, I am a beach girl. I really wanted to play this challenge at Just us Girls.

When I saw this challenge, I knew immediately that I had to play, and that I would use this NBUS cling rubber stamp set from Tim Holtz. The packaging has this awesome background that was very similar to a background that I had made a while ago - I can't even remember the technique, but I made many with it. I had the design in mind right away. I knew it would be a mini slimline. I used Prismacolor Pencils, which is not a strong suit for me. I am inspired to expand my coloring horizons by my dear friend Nonni, who is an incredible color artist. I am very pleased with the outcome, and so happy to join this JUGS challenge and use my NBUS supplies. I did not add a sentiment to the front, as it is quite busy enough. When I send it, I will figure out a sentiment for the inside.

    Hi Stephanie, What a great slimline card using your new shell stamps. The background looks like water and sand which worked out perfectly. I think your coloring looks great too. Thanks for choosing to join us at Just Us Girls this week, I appreciate that.

    Stephanie, this is a beautiful card! I love that background (and can relate to not remembering how it was done...been there done that!) What a great find in an image for this challenge, too. Thanks for playing with Just Us Girls!
