Let's Shell-ebrate

 

It's a sunny Saturday and we are STILL needing a good rain! We got a few sprinkles yesterday but that was all. Looks like lots of hand carried watering is in my forecast! 

I wanted to play along with the new Inspired By...Challenge with a seashell theme. I love this Summer Shells die set from Papertrey Ink and went to town.

I used a variety of distress inks then sprayed with Sheer Shimmer "Sparkle" craft spray (which doesn't show up in photos). I first stenciled the Aqua Mist using the Watercolor Wonderful stencil by Papertrey Ink. I embellished with dew drops and popped the sentiment with foam tape for some added dimension.

STAMPS: Salt Air: Sentiments (Papertrey Ink).

INK: Dried Marigold, Scattered Straw, Salvaged Patina, Vintage Photo distress; Aqua Mist, Dark Chocolate dye inks (PTI).

PAPER: Fine Linen, Stampers Select White (PTI).

DIES: Stitched Rectangle & Stitched Circle STAX Die-Namics (My Favorite Things); Summer Shells (PTI).

OTHER: Dew drops (PTI); Sheer Shimmer "Sparkle" spray (Imagine); Watercolor Wonderful stencil (PTI); Embossing folder (Stampin' Up!).
