I'm thrilled to be a guest designer for this week's CAS Challenge - a Limited Supplies Challenge to use only line stamps, no solid ones.
I chose a sea shells stamp I rarely use and paired it with a Happy Retirement greeting for a friend who is retiring soon (hopefully she'll get to spend some time on warm beaches!). It's stamped on rustic cardstock in Memento Tuxedo Black and coloured with coloured pencils. I left a border of the cardstock around the image and popped it up on dimensionals on a matching cardbase to keep it very CAS.
If any of you are sea shell experts, please forgive any inaccuracy in my colour choices for the shells!
