I made my card on a base of Kraft Cardstock, layering my sand dollar, seahorse and starfish over it with foam dots. I created the sea pieces for other projects but didn't end up using them so they were ready and waiting for me to collage them here. I used Shabby White and Shabby Pink Frantage embossing powders on the sand dollar and seahorse. I forget what I inked the star fish with but it's covered with Clear Rock Candy Crackle paint. I hand drew the frame around the card using a Micron 01 black fine pen - love how that defines the edges. I added 3 black rhinestones to finish it off!

Julia, your creation is tight and seaworthy with the most beautiful technique with the embossing powders! I love these! The rock candy star fish adds the perfect pop and all makes this card perfect! Thank you for adding it to my challenge!

i am impressed with the card and with the fact you hit five challenges! I was not familiar with Frontage embossing powders until I saw your beautiful sea horse and sand dollar. TFS
