On the High Seas

Everybody Art Challenge today is for Sea or Beach so it gave me a chance to use this fabulous boat stamp from High Hopes. Of course I've 3d it and love how the sails look like they're blowing in a gentle breeze.
The papers are Kaiser and since I stamp on white card I got out the Distress Inkpad and blending tool to edge the bright white card stock to tone it with the papers.
I have some cream flowersoft which I used on the waves and then sprinkled fun flock to fill the gaps. The childrens cuttlebug die of the cross bones is used once again and I added another one of those fab charms I got from Simon Says Stamps.
I didn't want to put much more on since I reckon this will work for a mans card.
I forgotten why I like the football season it means I get to play in my craftroom in the evening.

Hi Debby!

I love your 3D cards sooooo much!
It looks good with the Distress inked edges.
Please, can you make a photo tutorial
of your 3D work? I´ll also try to do it, but it doesn´t really work. I don´t know, how much to cut out....

Greetings from Austria
