One year ago, Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps asked me to be a guest designer. They sent me two stamps to play with - Beauty by the Sea and Ocean Paradise. I most amused - after all, what does a Colorado gal know about the ocean - but I had a great time playing along. Now I serve on their design team and get the fun of playing with their new sets each and every month. But I decided to go back and play with this original set...
- Stamps: Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Ocean Paradise and sentiment from Peaceful Swans
- Paper: Stampin' Up Marina Mist and white
- Ink: Stampin' Up Marina Mist
- Accessories: Papertrey Ink Impression Plate, Nestabilities ovals, crochet thread, tulle and miscellaneous beads
Kim, this is so gorgeous! The tulle and the pebbly texture are the perfect accents. Love the blue and white!

Fabulous take on the sketch Kim! Love the aperture you have created with the texture behind & the restful palette. :)
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful...and such a perfect match of sentiment and image. I was just at the beach and it really does make you realize that God is near...if you can be still and enjoy the scenery for a minute!
