Today's F4A challenge is - Recycle It - so I did! The corrugated 'sea' is a portion of a croissant box from the supermarket and the 'fishing net' was holding my oranges till a few hours ago! I dyed the orange net with alcohol ink and wiped the turquoise ink pad across the waves. I couldn't resist adding some glitter to my waves as I've seen done so beautifully on SCS.... ha! mine is a work in progress! I computer generated the words on the sign. The helm, bucket and birds were cut from the Life is a Beach cartridge. I sponged them all with the distress ink. Gosh that really was fun!

I did not recognize this as your work in the gallery, Sandie. Very different than most of your designs. Well thought out arrangement of dies to create this fabulous nautical scene. Super card!

You put a lot of thought into this and it turned out marvelously, darling! I just love every element of it. I need to go look at that cartridge and I may have to go looking for some of that cool wavy corrugate! Awesome!

Great recycling. I love the scene you created. Who would of thought to use an orange net for the fishing net, great idea. Love the waves, and the glitter is the perfect addition. This is a wonderful card. Love it. tfs.
Sandie, this is so cute and creative. I Love all the die cuts but my favorite thing is your "orange bag" fishnet and the corrugated pastry waves. Clever, clever girl!!!!!
