Starfish.

I decided to try an alternate color scheme for my Starfish tile, based on Eni’s Starfish Line Interrupted video lesson. I generally prefer cooler colors, such as blues and greens, but I also happen to like pinks and oranges on occasion. This choice is based on recently seen actual living starfish at the aquarium, where they tend more towards these colors in real life.

I added the frame, with the tiny details from the Tan Treasure lesson just to add some interest and frame the design.

While it took me a bit to get used to it not being blue and green, overall, I like the way it came out.
