TYI by the beach

Over at Tag You're It we have been feeling all summery with this fabuous weather so our challenge is to make a tag with the theme of by the beach. I borrowed my pals stampin up shell stamps for this one using the masking and layering technique to make a pile of shells. All coloured with distress inks then mounted onto black card. The swirly stamp around the edges is a docrafts corner stamp and the letters are from a fab alphabet set by woodware. some wool and fibre added for a seaweed look and thats it complete.
If you joined in our tag swap the tags were posted yesterday so should be with you soon - They were stunning!
Hope this has scheduled ok as I'm at work today :0)
