She sells sea shells by the sea shore...Ok, I just had to let that out, it's been running around in my head since I started playing with this set....Seashells! And Flourishes, Marcella Hawley put so many wonderful sea shells in this set...I used nine of them on my card, with no duplication, and there are many more you'll just have to see!
I loved last week's Sketch Challenge #235 on SCS, and it was a perfect way to showcase as many of the sea shells in this set as possible. I stamped the seashells in Memento Tuxedo Black on Classic Ivory cardstock and coloured them with Copics using the Flesh Tones 1 and the Cool Neutrals collections. I punched the images out and added some sponging around their edges and finished with dots make with a marker. The focal shell was cut out and popped up on dimensionals, and the sentiment was pulled from Fantasy Floral Garden. I finished with a little shell charm tied with some hemp. Perfect!
The rest of the design team has been up to their usual creativeness, so a quick peek at their blogs will give you the big picture on this set!
Don't forget to leave a comment on today's post on Flourishes blog for a chance to win this set! And pencil in Flourishes Power Hour on your calendar for Friday, at 9:00pm Central!

I am taking my girls to see Taylor Swift in Calgary tonight! My sister gave us tickets for Christmas, and I can't believe that it's finally time...and neither can my girls. To be honest, I'm pretty excited about it! I've really come to enjoy her music, and she has some great songs! I'll be home tomorrow and I'll have a preview of the title set for this release! Until then...thanks so much for dropping by!
