Here Comes Summer

This is the second card I made yesterday. Been having lots of problems with blogger today but having spoken to my friendly IT consultants (Helen & Ted - thank-you) it seems to be resolved.

This image is from Stampendous - Seashell Points - such a lovely summery stamp which I coloured it with my copics. I used a Go Kreate die - Frilly#1 and edged it with a VersaMagic chalk ink.
I have used a mesh type backing for the image ( sorry I don't know what this is called) and a paper from my stash. I then stamped the seahorse using another Stampendous image - Limpet points and coloured it and raised it in the top corner of the card. I used some lovely lemon ribbon and 2 seashell brads. I made a pin decorated to add to the seaside theme and the angel fish and coral came from a very old sticker sheet!
I would like to enter this card in the following challenges-
