What a fantastic inspiration site today! Anne you did good!! From the Outer Banks Trading Group I chose this shadow box for only $198. My DH used to say to our kids, "How can you use only & $198. in the same sentence?" Now they understand since their kids say the same thing - 'It's only...' http://www.obxtradingroup.com/index....=322&parent=42
While I was working on this I was wishing I had the weathered b/g stamp. I won't get into what I say about wishing!! But it would've made a difference.
Anyway, I stamped my shells & cut them out. They are on popdots. Wrapped some twine around the top, frayed the know & it was finished. You can barely see a lighthouse in the b/g of the photo - we collect them. The scallop & sand dollar are stamped off once.
Thanks for stopping by to take a peek.
PT - 9 I'm counting my cutting out those shells

Well now, isnt this just something else, Ms. Karen? I see someone used the same set you did. I love all the 9 images perfectly colored and perfectly spaced. Very calming card.

Love the softness of your shell shadowbox. I love the delicate colors you usedc...or how you used the stamping off technique. Just lovely. Youshould frame it!
Only $198!....must be hard to find shells that match perfectly...like a strand of South Seas pearls! LOL : )
