She sells sea shells...

Today I've been playing with some stash that hasn't seen the light of day for years. The seabird stamp (are they cormorants?) cane from a huge grab bag of unmounted stamps I bought about 15 years ago, and this is the first time it's ever seen ink. The papers are from the last few sheets of a pad bought by one of my daughters when she was living in San Francisco so they must be around 10 years old too. The pad had two pages in the "shells and seaweed" design, the blue one which I've used as a panel and a multi-coloured one from which I've cut the shell and seaweed elements.




The inspiration for the card was this week's photo at Pinspirational challenges, so I'm joining in with the  challenge.

I'm also playing along with :

Addicted to stamps - Holiday (using the UK interpretation of the word!)
Crafty Creations Challenges - It is all about S - sea and shells!
Crafting Musketeers - use a stamped image
Craft Room challenge - Things with wings (and no naughty suggestions this time!)
