Double D, Nautical

Happy 4th Of July....WOW!

A brand new Challenge is up and running over at the Double D Challenge Blog. 

Here is your Inspiration Tile for this Challenge:

I adore this tile!

Here's what I came up with, drawing inspiration from that tile and from my surroundings.  

Lucky enough to live at the beach!

I started by creating my wood grained background, only this time I scored it horizontally!  Backed it with Fun Foam, adding dimension and a nice sturdy place to add the rest of my Nautical card details. 4 metal corner brads.

Using Spellbinders Standard Circles, I layered 2 to create my porthole, I then added some Copper brads for accents, this also was backed with Fun Foam to add even more dimension!

I cut a white piece of card stock using the circle die and masked off sea and sky.  Sponged on Oxide inks and then flicked water all over it.  Gulls stamped in Raven Black ink, from Gina K Designs, By The Sea 2.  Sailboat and starfish stamped in Raven Black ink and colored with Copic Markers.  They are by Simon Says, Sail Away, stamp and die sets.

Sakura Glaze Pen on Starfish.

Inside, Copic Marker colored Sand Dollar die cut and sentiment stamped in Marina Mist ink.
