I bought these lovely beach hut stamps at a craft fair the other day from Little Claire and I absolutely love them!!!! They stamp beautifully and can be used in lots of ways as they come in a set. You can find them here.
I decided to go for a vintage look so I used Tea Dye Distress Ink for the background and co-ordinating Promarkers for the image.
The backing paper has starfish all over it and was a freebie that I downloaded. I tried to use a few different textures on the card, the rik rak is supposed to be the sea and the starfish was made from cork with some distress stickles on it. I threaded some twine through a button and frayed the twine to give it a more distressed look!
The sentiment was another stamp from the Beach Hut set which I cut with Labels 1 Nesties and edged with a Bronze Star Sakura pen.
I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges
