Shell and Octopi

Hi Everyone,

 I wanted to make one more summer card, before the summer is completely  over and Challenge up your Life provided the incentive - the theme is shells.


I thought I had some shells, but I was wrong, but then I dug o up this Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymus set, that I had won a looooong time ago and hadn't used. It has quite a beautiful shell in it. I also wanted to play with my new pearl alcohol inks. The shimmer doesn't show well in the picture, but they are pretty. I added some foil to the sticky areas. The delicate octopi are by Alexandra Renke and the frame is by Steckenpferdchen.

What an amazing final summer card...I can see the glow of those pearly alcohol inks. It works perfectly for marine look of the card. That shell is glorious...perfect to offset those teeny octopi. This is really a stunning card...my new favorite of yours.

So gorgeous, Cornelia. The alcohol ink made a great background for the wonderful shell. I'm so glad you "found" it. Perfect sentiment too.

Hi Everyone, I made a bunch of Easter cards, after all its little more than one month and I need to send them out in time... You see, they are all similar - using both the die cut and the negative, that I cut from a die cut egg. The cute bunnies got their yearly appearance - they are from Impression Obsession. the egg is by Lifestyle Crafts. The sentiment is by Papertrey. And here are bigger photos from this set: Linking up with Creative with Stamps - Easter The Paper Players - die cutting Die Cut Divas - animals Happy Little Stampers - anything goes with dies
