A Life on the Ocean Wave....

I created today's card as my entry for the nautical themed challenge over on Craftbubble's Craft Mad and Loving It group this week. 

This stamp from Little Darlings was absolutely perfect for the challenge.  I coloured it with Copics and added Glossy Accents to the waves to give them some texture.  The background sky was created with some cloud stamps from a 'Build a Scene' set and the seagulls are from a Crafty Individuals set. 

I've had the tiny real shells in my stash for a very long time and I tied a length of twine around the bottom half of the card, finishing with a simple knot.  The image is attached over a layer of SU! Not Quite Navy cardstock just to lift it a little against the white background.  A sort of CAS design, a style I am so loving at the moment, as regular visitors may have noticed !

Thanks for checking out today's project.
