I am once again using an image from my Daily coloring calendar, colored with markers. I was going to make my own beach background but since I was in need of getting this in the mail I went with using patterned paper for my background.
Can you see the little stamped sentiment I added near the cork of the bottle, my hubby saw it when I showed him so hopefully it didn't get lost in everything already going on in the paper. After stamping it there I thought oh I could have actually stamped it on the paper in the bottle, oh well, that is what I get for being in a hurry .
Coloring for calm- calendar image, colored w/markers
Poppystamps - Stitched Landscape die
K&co. - Blue Awning paper
Our daily bread design - Mini tag sentiment stamp
Thanks for taking the time to stop by today,
Connie

Oh Connie, I love this awesome card! The postcard background is just perfect for that seagull/message in a bottle! Love the way you added the brown along the bottom too! Awesome card!
Your "sand" is fabulous, Connie, and I love the daily coloring calendar image! The postcard in the background ties in so beautifully - all about messages and travel combined into one amazing creation! I love it! hugs, de
oh wow ... very cool!! LOL I did the same thing ... when we got back from French Polynesia all my cards were beaches and blue waters! LOL This is awesome and yes I spotted that cute little Birthday Wishes sentiment! Great job!
I LOVE your designer paper background! The two pieces are perfect together and the bit of writing on the upper piece really goes with the image. Another cute one from your coloring calendar. I can easily see the "birthday wishes" stamped on the paper. It looks like it belongs there as part of the paper. We all have those afterthoughts when stamping, sigh...
Connie, I love this card . . . everything about it!
