This card is for todays Ways to Use It Challenge, to use sun, moon or stars on your card. The sun stamp is a large foam stamp that was given to me, and I've only used it once before... it took me several tries to get it to look the way I wanted. I'll take rubber stamps over foam any day! The seaside image was colored in using watercolor crayons and blended with a blender pen. I like how the starfish kind of goes with the 'celestial' theme, so I added a starfish on the coordinating envie in the background. Thanks for looking!

Gosh, that sun is amazing! I thought at first you'd stamped it on cork, but if it was a foam stamp, I can see why it has such a feeling of texture to it. I have to say, though, my favourite part of this is the eyelets and the hemp through them; it reminds me of old canvas deckchairs, and just adds so much to the summer-on-a-beach feeling this has.

Oh my, the image with the little girl holding a starfish is fantastic and rather creative for the challenge. It, along with the sun are beautifully colored! (I agree with you about foam stamps!)
