Anything Goes

It's Spring, the weather had been wonderful and today on the Emerald Creek Blog....Anything Goes!! And I'm going to the beach!! It is my favorite place and I really need to go more often....just to walk, take pictures and have ice cream! And collecting seashells and little driftwood sticks to use on craft projects of course.

For this project I started with a Tim Holtz shadow box, gessoed it, then used my fingers to add some Dusty Concord and Peacock Feather Distress Paint. I made my own "fishnet" using some hemp twine I had in my stash.

I stamped and cut out my Emerald Creek Starfish and Water Logged. I then used my Emerald Creek Weathered Wood Embossing Powder and San Tropez Tan to the add texture to the logs. I love the texture from these embossing powders!!

I painted these adorable little seahorses and starfish from Southern Ridge Trading Company, with Distress Paint and a bit of silver Distress Spray.

 I used some old Scrabble tiles for my "beach" across the top, just used the same colors of Distress Paint on them as I had used on the shadow box.

Emerald Creek Starfish Stamp
Emerald Creek Water Logged Stamp
