Sailing the Seas


This adorable sailboat is part of the new CDS August release called Sails, Subs and Tugs. The set includes a submarine, a tugboat, this sailboat and various matching sentiments.

I watercolored the image and applied it to a background that was sponged with stampin' UP! inks. My dp was embossed using my Cuttlebug and spritzed with glimmer mist. I love the way the grommet added just the right amount of bling!

What a cool card, Peg! I love the CB embossing and the way you sanded the color off. The image is perfectly colored and that large grommet looks like a porthole!! Great job, as always!!!
