Hello friends! Every once in a while a collection of products come by that seem to be just for you. I have long loved gathering sea shells at the beach and marveling at their natural beauty. My home is filled with the collections! When I saw the Texture Chic Suite Collection (Stampin' Up!) I knew it was for me! With an assortment of seasonal images in a sketchy style with dies and shimmering papers, I envision beautiful creations throughout the year.
Just in time for LeAnne's fabulous sketch challenge at The Paper Players, here's my first card made with the brand new goodies.
They are assembled over a die cut piece of the Distressed Gold Specialty paper. I love this glimmer! A sweet sentiment stamped in Bermuda Bay and a scattering of elegant jewels (Buttercream by PPP) complete my project.
I hope you will head on over to see the gorgeous DT samples and join us for the sketch. I'd love to see what you make! You will also find this entry at the delightful NBUS Challenge (never-been-used-stuff.)
Thanks so much for your visit today, hope you're able to find some time to get crafty!

Have delight in your craft

This is beautiful, Cindy! Your addition of the gold die cut and sprinkling of sparkling gems is marvelous. I hope to add a few more real shells to my collection this summer!
