Here is my project: a mini-album by Heart of Texas and with the great cricut shapes cut from from our great sponsor's file:  sea shell cuts ,

Which I modified using Tim Holtz techniques and paints.

 A closer look to the front page. I used the new Tim’s Frosted Film technique in the CCC3 challenge hosted by Linda Ledbetter

You can take a better look at this technique in this picture.

The second page.

 The third page with more seashells from this svg file and many more distressing techniques from Tim.

 The last page, I have so far. The rest of the album will follow, when I get more inspiration...

Some closer looks: 

 I bought some of this glitter shapes and distressed them with abandoned coral distressing ink to make them funkier...

 I love how this seagull ended up looking. 

 I used some cracked pistachio and the white crackling paint to get the old look of the many old victorian houses in this island.

A closer look to the seashells and star fish.

This challenge was sponsored by: The Funkie Junkie Boutique with a fabulous $25 shopping spree for one very lucky CC3Cer!
