Ship Ahoy


It's time for a new sketch on Everybody Art Challenge and this week its a sketch. To be honest I wasn't sure about the sketch but once I layered the card with my image it worked out a treat.
The papers are are Echo Park or Carta Bella and of course my little chap is from Mo Manning from the Sailor Boys set.
Instead of buttons I used the Memory Box Anchor die and the CC Designs Balloons die but with the balloons I added the twine an knots to make it look more interesting but it didn't really work.
I very sneakily missed out the triangle cos nothing I put there worked probably cos the papers are quite busy.



Do hope you can join us this week, don't forget to pop over and check out the team.

I think the sailor boy image is so cute, and the colours you have used are great. This is quite a complex sketch, but you have interpreted it beautifully. I do love that Memory Box Anchor die, and the dp with the waves on is lovely. x
