Ilove the beach. I chose the candle with the sand and shells. I had made the background earlier in the week and knew it would be perfect for this inspiration challenge. I used my seashell cuttlebug die(OLD) and created lots of starfish and sand dollars and scallop shells out of heavy watercolor paper. I love using that paper for die cuts as it has such a nice weight to it. I ran them across my distress ink pads to give them a pop of color. The sentiment is vintage cuttlebug as well from some set or another I bought years ago.I added some Martha Stewart branch punches as my seaweed, garnished with some pearls and VOILA! I am so happy to have rediscovered my papercrafting and want to thank each one of you for inspiring and encouraging me! HUGS, NR
