The teapotters challenge was for gulls or beach or something of the sea. I have colored my digital gull with colored pencils and sponged with su marina mist for the sky and su crumb cake and rangers wild honey for the sand. On the sand, I dotted grains and put a hint of shadow with the pencils.. This was mounted on royal blue and popped up on white cs cut with the Fluer de lis spellbinder die. Then attached to lt. blue cs. The verse if from Jonathon Livingston Seagull. (one of my favorite books). I stamped the seashells from Gina K yr. of borders and colored again with pencils. (they give the nicest "blush" of color). This has just a tine backing of royal blue and attached to the bottom of the card.

Lola stopped swimming in Mudder's teacup long enough for you to paint her picture. And a beautiful job it is. The textured seashells behing the sentiment are lovely as is your frame that sets off the focal image.
