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, my, be still my heart. What a gorgeous card with an ocean theme! I have always felt I had salt water in my veins!! I just love all the treasures of the ocean.
