Missing the Beach!

8/9/2022

Today I'm posting on two challenge sites:

Seize the Birthday #244 - No Stamping
Shopping Our Stash #SOS476 - She Sells Seashells

As someone who is currently laid up on the couch having had foot surgery, I had the brilliant idea prior to my surgery to pack a bag of watercolor supplies while I convalesced on the couch.  Much to my delight, the above challenges fit perfectly within my limited resources for card making! 

After I finished the piece, I decided to hand tear the edges for a distressed vibe.  Since I can't actually stamp a sentiment and finish the card with cardstock (my craft room is on the second floor and I can't get there on crutches), I simply laid it on some hard kraft board for purposes of posting. 

​I think the name of this shell is a shark eye and I was inspired by a YouTube video by Maria Raczynska.  I used Kuretaki Gansai Tambi watercolors.

Thanks for stopping by!

Wishing you a speedy recovery!! Beautiful seashell...you are talented!! Way to go shopping your stash and making the best of your situation...so glad you played along with our "she sells seashells" challenge over at SOS. With these torn edges your card would also be perfect for the grunge/distress challenge over at the Cardz 4 Guyz blog.
