The Mango Melody square was cut on the diagonal, from corner to corner. I snipped off the 4-pointed ends and glued the triangles behind the embossed layer. The whole piece was then added to the Pacific Point card front using liquid glue.

The seashells were stamped on scrap Basic White in Mango Melody, Sweet Sorbet, Tahitian Tide or Pacific Point ink and die cut using the Seaside Seashells Dies. I used a Clear Wink of Stella pen to add a little colour on the shells and provide a little sparkle.
