 For Lyn's TLC challenge: TLC921 Colored Salt Watercolor 10/17/2022 by Rebeccaof at Splitcoaststampers

I couldn't get to it till yesterday, and then it took all day to dry. Plan A (I'd gone with green watercolours, and purple, yellow and blue to colour my salt) had been a Christmas card. But it looked nothing like that this morning, instead it suggested the sea. So I cut the shells and sponged them. Added a net cut from pearlescent silver, popped the shells up on foam and also the sentiment. I used some of the same inks for sponging the sentiment, also the base, and stamped both sentiment and base with the same bubbly stamp from Art Journey which includes a little heart in a couple of the bubbles, so I thought it tied in well with the sentiment.

I love your salty background, you've got great texture!! mine were long to dry too, I think it depends on the choice of salt too, some make more cells than others, I love your pretty die cuts and strong sentiment!!

I love the ocean and this caught me from the start. I love everything about it. From the colors to the shells to the sentiment...all are just too beautiful for words. I saved to my favorites.

Aren't we usually our own worst critic? This is a gorgeous background and perfect setting for the cast net & shells!
