I have another Salt background to show you this time with an ocean theme.
Wet on wet watercolour, sprinkle course grain salt over it and wait for it to dry. Once dry brush off the salt and stamp. I used Versafine Clair and clear embossing powder to stamp the images.
I'm entering the following Challenges.
I hope it's CAS enough for the two CAS Challenges.

Great beach card, Christine. I see what the salt does on this background and it makes a very cool impression.
Love this background, Christine! It's perfect for an underwater theme! Nice crisp stamping and embossing of the images! The shine makes them look wet!
Wow. such a beautiful background. It definitelt sets the stage for an underwater scene.
Another amazing background, the embossed shells look amazing against it. So nice to see you in the CAS mix up gallery xx
And another spectacular salted background with amazing texture. Perfect for an ocean theme.
The salt technique makes an awesome ocean water background, Christine! Love the shells and that sketchy lone fish. He looks a bit like he's been through a pandemic, too! I hope you're keeping well and thank you for sharing with everyone at NBUS! Hugs, Darnell
Perfect background for your stamps which are way cool, by the way. The fish is my fave. Love them embossed.

I thought I'd write back about the Glimmer System. I really like it, but the plates are VERY expensive, in my opinion. I didn't look into the price of the plates prior to buying the system. You have to buy plates for everything you do. It has been costing me a small fortune. Before you decide look at the plates and see what you would like to have and price them. Many of the plates come with dies and that's nice. You'll be surprised how much it adds up to. They do run sales frequently.
Nice, I mean really NICE. The black heat embossed stamping is just perfect for that gorgeous background. Thanks for sharing with us at CAS Mix Up!
Another fabulous background using the salt Christine, and I love the two shells and pretty fish which stand out beautifully using black ink and heat embossing. x
Gorgeous effect on your background, and perfect images for the CAS Mix Up challenge .... thank you for playing along!
Amazing background! I love neutral colors and the gentle clustering of colors around salt pools. I have a problem with the salty background, because most often salt dissolves creating unsightly salt stains.
