I love how you did the fun sentiment panel along with all the water-world creatures! Well done, and WTG in keeping your goal for 50 cards!
SUPER card Mo! I do so love those stamps you're using - and the chalk a bit over the lines (mind you I peered real close and can't see it) wouldn't matter one jot IMHO!
Well done for almost reaching your target too - do you feel the pile had gone down a bit, medium amount or a lot? :)
Hugs, Di xx

I can see the fun you had - its FUN to look at your card, too!
I am very impressed with your dedication to getting 50 cards done. Almost there. That shrimp is too stinking cute.
Hi Maureen, this card is great! Live the soft colours & that mix up of sentiment stamps is GENIUS! May need to borrow that idea!

Hi ScarappyMo hope your OK! 40 cards! That's impressive! I really like all of the stamps to create a sentiment card, it looks really good!

I love your new coloring style and these adorable creatures of the sea. And the layout is fantastic!
This card is lovely Mo and a great use of your stash and scraps. I think it's great you are determined to use up stock you already have before buying new and only ten cards to go! I love the fun prawn and oyster, and the pretty starfish paper in the background. x
Super card!
This is a fabulous card Mo, such a great idea with the sentiments.
