Sea Shells by the Sea Shore!

Bobby is Hosting this weeks challenge at Just Us Girls 

and chose WATER for our  WORD WEEK. 

I knew just what I wanted to do for this challenge

and had so much fun putting my little 

Mixed Media Canvas together.

 

There is a little story behind this canvas.

I recently said to my daughter I needed some sand

for a project. She said she would get a bag for me 

on a trip to spend time with granddaughter in Weipa

(top of Australia) hence she arrived home with

the little bag of sand and some tiny shells

which Harper (my GGD) picked from their trip to the beach.

I had mixed enough sand and texture paste

mixed with Lindy's Magical's and Acrylic Paint

 to create a few more sometime soon.

I even added two small bottles of beach bits

but too big for this canvas.

My beach scene has the blue water

with tiny breaking waves and splashing

against the sand.

Lots of shells, mica flakes, pearls, art stones,

distress glitter and bauxite I have had

in a little bottle for years

(funny enough came from Weipa

where it is mined)

Our Guest Betty and the Team

have created a variety of 

water themed cards for your pleasure.

Now it's your turn to show off yours.
