I did this background for the F4A255 last Friday and never picked it up again until yesterday. I did the wrinkle free distress on it Wrinkle-Free Distress Tutorials at Splitcoaststampers. Next, I added coarse salt to the bg before it was dry. Once dry and salt wiped off, I stamped the turtle and then twice more without reinking-masking over initial turtle. Then when I saw the sketch for today, I thought it would work out just fine!

So can we say your turtles are swimming in salt water?? Salted, at least. Nice to see you, Pam. Nice card and very nice detail on how you did it. Thanks.

This card is so pretty and calming. I admire the distressed background - in those lovely shades. I love anything to do with the sea so this one really caught my eye.
