However I saw so many lovely designs, I decided to try something new.
Friends are like Seashells 154368, and Seaside Seashell Dies 156059.
I then used a stencil to ink some "sand and sea" using Daffodil Delight and Balmy Blue.
I used sticky notes to keep the stencil in place, which turned into a happy accident,
as I quite liked the masked off edge.
The versamark images didn't show well, so I stamped a few images in the same ink colours.
I then added Shimmery Glossy Accents dots randomly, and also coated the starfish with it.
That ended up a bit messy instead of the smooth look I was aiming for!
I added wink of stella on the small shells,
then placed a small sentiment aligned with the masked off edge on the right.
Being a New set, (NBUS) and using Ink, I'll enter the following challenges:
Not a set I would go for either but I really like what you've done here - something a bit different
