APC Week 7 - A Sea Theme

Hi Everyone!  I am still playing catch up with the Altered Playing Card Challenge but have completed Week 7's cards.

Can you tell from this photo I have just discovered Pic Monkey!

Both cards for this week had a sea theme.  



The first card had a distress stain background and the interesting part was the embossed acetate layered over this before adding some die cut leaves for seaweed  for which I used a glittered cardstock and a stamped Seahorse and Shell colored with a touch of ink. 



The second card uses Archival Inks and a masking technique using masking tape.  Nautical Themed Stamps of a sailing boat and compass and navigation symbols were also used.  A touch of color was added with my Big Brush Stamper Pens.
