who wants mehrmeer?

Did you see my last post? I recently had the pleasure of meeting Carmen K. who is Ms Inkystamp and who also happens to live a few towns over. Needless to say I didn't leave without picking up a couple of her stamp sets.

I created two cards with Mehrmeer and here I've combined the sentiments from it with images from a new-to-me-but-oh-how-wonderful Korallenriff from Charlie und Paulchen. Ready for a walk on the beach? I'm so in love with this first card... Used two red tones for the crayfish.

And then I had to pair the starfish with the sentiment that reads "in my heart I'm barefoot". Funned it up with masking and some "sand" made with an ancient texture stamp. And I felt the upper left corner needed something so it got two fun scraps tacked on.

Let me tell you, these stamp designs are so beautiful. If you need a classy ocean life stamp set...

I'm joining the fun at:

    I can see why you picked these stamps up! They are amazing!! I love how you've used them, too. That lobster (or is it a crayfish?..) looks amazing; your reds are perfect. And your beachy card starfish is simple and lovely. Two great cards. Love 'em. Bev

    CAS Perfection designs for your new starfish and what we call..lobsters. We have clams too, but different looking. Love how you added your faux sand on your 1st card and almost like flags scraps of designer paper to balance out your 2nd card. TFS Maria. Hugs..Nancy
