Now, if you're like me, you love all things that are nautical. My son's room is in a nautical theme. I even painted a mural on one of his walls! Here, let me show you...
I'll be sad when he decides he wants to change it. Anyway, I recently had to make a card for a card exchange and now that I know she's received it I can share it. So, I figured I would link it up to this challenge too. Here it is...
I used and old sailboat stamp (Great Canadian Stamp Co.) on watercolour paper and used some watercolour pencils to colour it in. I cut a partial circle window in the map paper (DCWV, Tradewinds 12 x 12 paper pad) and layered that over top. I cut two circles in blue and cream and made the sentiment by hand. I didn't have a stamp that said what I wanted and didn't like the fonts I had on the computer. I added the postage stamp sticker (K&Company) too. I really like how this turned out. :-)
Hope you have some time to check out this new blog. I look forward to seeing what is going to be next. :-)
Have a fantastic day!
