For this try at ef stamping, I used acrylic paint daubers misted with water and only partially stamped onto my card base. The combo of colors gave a beachy feel so I decided to go with a collage of beach items including a shell and beach glass with some other items from closer to home, a strip of thin wood, tendrils from some plants and a piece of burlap. I used my SAMJ to line up my verse with the wood embellishment word and my Versamarker to omit a couple of words, then embossed in Early Espresso ep. I sponged some Suede ink around the edges.

Gail, this is just stunning. It could be a real collage sold in the art shops at the beech here in California. I just keep looking at it. Your bkg sure is perfect for this card. It has such "walk on the beech" feel. Lovely colors. Right into my favd... it just really appeals to me. So different and creative.
