I loved making this card that seemed to fit 3 challenges I found this week. I stamped my own background for this using distress oxide inks, and using a old seashell set from SU dated back to 2000, palm trees from a set from 2006, and my Crosshatch background stamp from many, many years ago as well. The sentiment is my only new stamp used on this card.from Stampendous. My diecut is from Spellbinders.
Here are the challenges I made this card for:
Retro Rubber challenge#92 Life is a beach
Crafty gals corner #171 - tropical colors

Your base card colour screams summer seas to me and I love the way you've built up the background with inks and layers of stamping. It's gorgeous and a fitting ground for your bold flamingo. Thanks for joining us at Retro Rubber Challenge this week.
What a gorgeous card, I love your background and that fun flamingo!
Beautiful card, love your background and the pop of pink on the flamingo. Thanks for playing along with Retro Rubber Challenge blog.
