Hello and Happy Seize the Birthday Thursday, everyone ๐Ÿ™‚ !

Our leader Nancy chose the new toppings option for next fortnight and it’s “By the Sea”.

221-aug19-nancy

I made a DIY background with some starfishes and seashells using Seashells (30-843) and Starfish Wishes (30-847) stamp set from Dream & Discover release by Penny Black.

I white heat embossed the seashells and starfishes on some watercolor paper and colored the panel in Cerulean Blue and Orchid Color Burst powder. I sprinkled Color Burst on the panel and sprayed clear water on it. I then moved the color with a brush as I wanted.

After the panel was dry I trimmed it a bit and foam mounted it on a white cardbase. The sentiment from the Starfish Wishes (30-847) stamp set was stamped in Grape Crush ink on a piece of white cardstock. I cut it using the Sign die (51-608) and added it to the card. I finished off the card with a few white sequins.
