Was inspired by Sally Traidman of Hero Arts to make this Monochrome card. You can click here to see her card.
First attempt I was not liking the noticeable impressions that the dies were leaving in the cardstock from tiny metal pieces not cut off after clipping the dies. Hubby gave me his wire cutters and that remedied the problem.
Used Hero Arts Pebble cardstock to cut the dies out and heat emboss the sentiment using Sand embossing powder. Base cardstock is Hero Arts Sand cardstock.

Supplies
Hero Arts:
cardstock/paper - Pebble, Sand
die - Seashells
embossing - Sand embossing powder
stamp - In A Pinch sentiment
ink: VersaMark
tool: heat embossing tool,
hubby's wire cutters which I used to get the tiniest of
metal pieces off the dies after clipping them, before doing
so when the dies were put thru my Sizzix BIGkick the
tiny pieces left on made noticeable impressions in the
cardstock
