Happy Kitchen Sink Monday!! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend...I sure did! Now, since it is Monday, that means it is Kitchen Sink Monday!! For today, I combined my kitchen sink card with the More is More (MIM0709) fan club integrative challenge over on SCS. As many of you know this month's theme is tropical paradise...and when I think tropical, I think sea shells, and when I think sea shells, I think Kitchen Sink Stamps 3 step Sea Shells! I just love the dimension these stamped shells give! For my card sketch, I used a sketch challenge from a few weeks ago...SC238. I really liked the 
simplicity of this sketch, yet you can dress it up a bit more if you like! So for my "less card" You can see that I stamped three different shells for the different image panels. I then added a bit of baja breeze ribbon, and the sentiment...which is from the new Words of Comfort and Joy set.

the same baja breeze ribbon. I also tore the bottom edge of the creamy caramel layer under the images. Additionally, I sponged the edges with creamy caramel, and added three antique brass brads.

I am sure it is just a personal preference thing, but I kind of would like to know what you all like a little better. Some prefer more clean cards, while others prefer a bit more to their cards. Let me know what you think!! :)
