Saw the new challenge on the City Crafters' Blog and was inspired to make this card.
 
I loved the blues in the inspiration photo and this Lawn Fawn plaid paper
 was the closet I had to gingham.

Fintastic "Tank You"

Sharing a card with an ocean/water theme.
Bit of yellow water color in the back with blue splatters
I used 3 different distress inks to make the waves and
generously covered them in glossy accents.
 
 
 


Glossy Accents works so well to add "water" to a project:

Be a Little Shellfish

Finally out for the summer and hoping to get a little crafty a little more often!
Played with my Lawn Fawn circle frames and new shellfish set to make a
little shaker card.




I water colored the background and added darker paint splatters
as well as drops of glossy accents for a wet look.
 

 
 
I am entering this card into the following challenges:
 
 
 
Inspired by the ocean/whale and the blues
 
 
I think the blue colors make this card appropriate for a man!
 
 
Thanks for visiting.
I am READY for some craft time this summer!
