"Where you feel the most alive" challenge @ W2CB

Here is my card for the Words 2 Craft By challenge theme: "Go where you feel the most alive." I love going to the ocean, watching the waves, breathing the fresh air and feeling that sand between my toes! Everything else melts away.

I had lots of fun making a Gelli print and stencil background to go with this beautiful stamp by Crafty Individuals! I stamped the chairs both onto the background and plain white CS; I colored the striped fabrics, cut them out and attached them to the background.

Ooooooh, Sherry... I absolutely love this gorgeous card! That Gelli print and stenciled background are the perfect background for those sweet chairs. What a perfect card for our W2CB go-where-you-feel-most-alive challenge. Thanks so much for playing along with us at Words 2 Craft By. :)

Hi Sherry, I've just stopped by to say how much I love this card after seeing it on the Crafty Individuals blog. The background is absolutely stunning and I have to say that I own a Gelli plate but I haven't managed to create anything that looks half as good as this. The colours are just perfect, it's a stunning work of art. Keep up the good work and enjoy the weekend, Sandra x
