  1. Stamp the Seaweed and three Seahorses on white cardstock with black ink.  Starting with the Seaweed, add dark green as shown.
  2. Add a lighter shade of green as displayed in the photo.
  3. With a light yellow color, add color to the tips of the Seaweed.
  4. Dip a paper blending stub on the Gamsol sponge. and then use small circles to blend the green and yellow colors together.
  5. Your Seaweed should look like this photo.

  10. Using a rose colored PITT Pastel pencil, add color as shown.
  11. With a dry paper blending stub, blend the color, carrying the rose color into the light brown as shown.
  12. Color the remaining two Seahorses using the steps above.
  13. Fussy cut all four items.
  14. Put your card front together and then stamp the Seaweed where you want it.  This will provide a shadow.
  15. Add in the first Seahorse for shadow.
  16. Then place the second Seahorse for shadow.
  17. Finally, place the third Seahorse shadow.
  18. Using foam adhesive, add in the fussy cut images directly on top of the 'shadow' stamped images.
