You Make Me As Happy As A Clam

Today, we are going down by the boardwalk, down by the sea!  Now that song is going to be playing in my head all day!


Using a Tim Holtz sea horse die cut, ARTplorations stencil and distress inks this tag was created.  I used Pistachio, Faded Jeans, Peacock Feathers and Vintage Photo DI.  When stenciling, I used FJDI for the water and VPDI for the sand area.  A few circles of white acrylic paint was added to the left of the card and some of them faded into the background.  The shell has a little VPDI on it and gauze and string were added.  This sentiment stamp has been one of my favorite and does not get used much.

  10. This is so very cool, Jerrie! I love you layers of color, the use of the retro circles stencil (one of my favorites) and the ocean theme. As a Maine native and lover of all things to do with the beach, this tag is GORGEOUS to me! Love it! Thanks for playing along with us at STAMPlorations' Mixed Media Challenge for August.
