I made this a center step card today.  I didn't have any designer paper to go on the sides and across the bottom so I made my own.  I used the sea weed  and stamped it, then cut the strips for the sides and bottom of my center step card. 
 
Now, hop over to Lois's blog and see what she has created for you today!
