Thank you Stef for such a soothing color combination this week (CC749). It was perfect for my 'trip' to the coast. My card is also for the Teapotters Challenge (MMTPT574). I don't have flowers, but loads of water and so many shells. This card is going to one of our own. You can read about it here Flowers Need Water.
I used the awesome Impression Obsession Seashell Collage. Stamping it several times in different colors and popping it with dimensionals. 'Pearls' with a blue hue were added on top of the image pearls. I used a snippet of tule in a silver. The Bermuda Bay layer was embossed with the SU 'Ruffle' EF. I misted with water for a deeper impression. I love that the ruffle looks like ocean waves as well. A few well placed staples and a base of silver gray and there you have it.
This card was a joy to make. I hope Cheryl will feel encouraged and comforted to know our thoughts and prayers wrap her from coast to coast, shore to shore 'round the world. It is a symphony of love.
Thank you for your comments.

Oh, that's a beautiful collage. I see my IO wishlist for the Thanksgiving sale getting longer by the week, it will need some serious pruning later on. The tulle and pearls are wonderful embellishments, and the way you added the layers and dimension is wonderful. A card full of peace.
