OK, so I created a coral wreath.....get it?! My kids think I'm nuts, but the play on coral reef makes me crack up every time! To create this card, first I used a pencil to lightly trace a circle die from my stash in the center of my cardstock. The starfish was stamped next using Hero Arts ombre ink. I created a mask and stamped another starfish. The coral was stamped five times around the circle and then I erased my pencil lines. The sentiment fit in the center of the wreath perfectly!
I inked the edges with Salty Ocean and Chipped Sapphire Distress Ink and mounted the panel on some navy cardstock then adhered to my card base. Some Pretty Pink Posh sequins finished the card off!
