Happy 4th of July to everyone! It is going to be a hot day here in Virginia so thought I would upload a beach themed card. The bookmark tag can be removed and used as a bookmark or tag for that special "beach" person. I used Stamping Up cardstock for the card and tag. I used watercolor cardstock for the shell -- stamped the shell with white ink and embossed. Then I covered the watercolor paper with Ranger distress ink. I love this technique -- so easy. I then cut out the image with my Spellbinders circle and sprayed with a mixture of perfect pearls and water. Very sparkly. I distressed the tag and flourish with Ranger inks and stamped "Beach Bum". I glued on real shells at the bottom. All images are from the set Stamp Set 403 - By the Seashore by http://www.spakrlensprinkle.com/. This set has three lovely shells in it that can be cut out with the circle nestabilities from Spellbinders. HAVE A GREAT HOLIDAY WEEKEND!!
What a wonderful card with great beachy flavors! You did a great job with the inks and embellishments. The white EP is perfect!
