Do you see a sailing theme in my posts these last couple of days? Not sure what brought that on other than there's alot of sailing-themed stamps and accessories coming out! Before I begin, I admit that watercoloring is not my strength! But, I'm still trying! I used the Aquapainter and my ink pads to create this card - definitely not one of my favorite techniques, but I'm not giving up!
I used Baja Breeze to do a wash over the entire image before I started. I used a mix of Marina Mist and Not Quite Navy for my water. Can you see the Daffodil Delight in the flag at the top of the sail? Nope, I didn't think you would but it's up there! I used Cherry Cobbler on the sails and Soft Suede on the boat.
There are a ton (well, maybe not a ton) of new masculine stamps coming out in the Summer Mini. I used three of them on this card: Sail Away, Best Dad Ever, and The Open Sea!
This card will be one of five that we make in my Let's Hear It For The Boys class this coming June!
