The seahorse looks so striking in shades of yellow. My original plan was to put more aquatic color on the card, but everything I tried (aqua card base included) just didn't work right for me. The gray allows the yellow to really sing, and there's just a hint of aqua in the bling bubbles.
My favorite part of this card is the pairing of the sentiment with an image of a seahorse holding onto seaweed with its tail.
Who among us hasn't had to hold onto something in the currents of life?
I hope you're hanging in there in this season of hacking and coughing.
Mercy, grace, peace, and love,
Susan

I have seen this stamp done several ways but I like this the best. I have this stamp set but just couldn't get with all the blues and greens. This one really works.
ReplyDeleteYour cards have quiet peace and beauty. Your seahorse is no exception. Many of my favorite cards are born from your designs/ideas.
