Sea Side or Underwater?

Welcome

The challenge for this month's card swap in my small group was to make a Slide and Lock fun fold card,  the instructions were clear and the technique quite simple.


I had an idea, then spotted a piece of blue watercoloured card on my desk against a piece of black cardstock, and my mind went elsewhere.... 


The background card had been made by mopping up ink off my work surface after an=
 inky session - I have no idea what the colour is now!  

The 'sand' was created by mixing coarse texture paste with a wee sprinkle of Lindy's powders in two colours - Get a Guy gold and Bratwurst Brown, then applying it to the card with a spatula.


The diecut sea shells were cut using a Couture Creations Intricutz set of dies, which I carefully put away and now cannot find to name it - they were cut from a remnant from a gelli printing session...


The sentiment and starfish were stamps from an old magazine freebie set. 

The two sides of the card are held shut by the circle mechanism, which also slides up and down the card.
