Beachcombing with Blendabilities ~ Video

One of the things I love about the beach is climbing around the rocks to view the tidepools and picking up little treasures off the sand.  The last challenge is up for the StampNation Beach Vacation and it is a Beachcombing challenge.  I made two videos showing how I created my card.

***Note- If you are reading this post in a reader or email you may need to go to my blog to view the video.  Click the post title to go there now.  :)

The part 2 video will show you how I created sand with Copics and pulled the card together.  StampNation members can go there now to see SN Beach Vacation #6.

...not to mention daily challenges, videos, dream team inspiration and to kick it off the design team, along with some fabulous guest designers will be having a blog hop on July 20th.  Can it get any better than this?

I just have to post a sneak peek of what I have been working on for this awesome event.  Which card do you think I should use as my submission?  

With sequins or without?   You all know how much I love my sequins from Pretty Pink Posh, but I think I may have gone a bit overboard this time.
