I grew up by the ocean and although I've lived in the moutains for years, I have a special place in my heart and mind for the vast expanse, scent and sounds of the ocean. The inpiration photo at
Just Us Girls challenge blog this week has a seashell and the photo not only inspired me but brought the wonderful Atlantic ocean to my mind :) Here's the inspiration photo:
One of the Hero Arts stamp sets I have, Antique Engravings, has the prettiest vintage style seashells and I used them to make my card for this week's challenge:
Antique Linen stickles are used to make the sand, tumbled glass stickles on the shells and gold stickles on the dragonflies (can you tell I love stickles :)?
Thanks for stopping by.

What a lovely take on the photo inspiration, Lucille, and one of the nicest cards I've seen using these shell stamps! Beautifully done!
It's a fabulous card Lucille. All the stickles just makes the card pop.
Lovely... The woodgrain BG reminds me of driftwood and somehow this card reminded me of childhood vacations in Ocean City, MD!
Oh! It's beautiful! I like how you've made the "sand" with stickles. Hugs
