sea view (by Veronica)

Today I have two cards to share using the seashell collage stamp set.

The first uses the seagulls, these are just waiting for signs of anyone approaching who may have food....

Coloured with watercolour pencils,apart from the sky which was sponged with distress ink. The large gull was stmaped on spare card, coloured,   cut out and glued over the main image. The base card was sponged wioth distress ink and randomly stamped with seashells in the same ink.


 The second card uses some of the smaller stamps from the set  to create a rough wreath shape. The shells were inked with distress inks in orange and green and the anchor and helm in brown. The words  and some of the seashells  seashells were randomly stamped around the edges to form the background in distress inks, and the same inks sponged round , with a very light blue added to the centre.  The sentiment is from punky expressions

  3. Two terrific cards Veronica and I love wonderful background sky and sea accompanying the three super seagulls, and also the soft tone on tone inking on the card itself, and a great idea to add one of the seagulls over the whole thing as a focal image, and then the second with the bright yellow tone on tone stamped background with the smaller images forming a wreath in the centre and a great sentiment in the centre. x
