Creative Tip
: Stamp one of the large waves onto light-colored cardstock and color individual areas in various shades of blue, turquoise, and aqua. Add a saying like “Message in a Bottle” or “Message on the Waves,” a small piece of string, and maybe a tag—and your project will feel like a fresh sea breeze.
