As soon as I saw this stamp set, I just had to have it. The starfish in this set are so real looking. I immediately envisioned doing an ocean scene. I tried a new technique. I swiped the ink pads directly to the Watercolor Wash stamp and misted with water. I placed the watercolor paper directly onto the stamp, and rubbed over the top with another piece of scrap paper. The result (to me) is just like an ocean. I then stamped the starfish in Crumb Cake first, then Soft Suede and cut them out. Wink of Stella in clear gae this card just the right amount of shimmer, to represent water. Hope you like it.

Oh my, you're right about this looking so realistic! I love it and love your techniques! Living in South Florida, I can say you've captured a realistic "feel" of the beach! Stunning card! Hugs!
