And here is the card I made to attend this challenge:


I white embossed Hero Arts' Nautilus Pattern Bold Prints on a piece of white cardstock. Then I blended in Distress Oxide inks with Twisted Citron, Salty Ocean, and Blueprint Sketch to resist the image. I cut the background at the bottom with an angle and attached it on a blue cardstock. I white embossed "have a fabulous day" (from Hero Arts' Friendly Messages stamps & dies set) on the blue cardstock and die cut out with the matching die. I attached it at the bottom of the Nautilus Pattern background. I also die cut the seashells (from Hero Arts' Seashells Fancy dies set) from white cardstock and spray with Lindy's Gang Magical powders and water to make them shimmery. Finish the card by attaching the seashells at the bottom of the card. Below is another look of the card:
