I made this card for my boss's upcoming milestone birthday and he's going on his very first cruise. Quick and easy to make! I layered the cardstock, DSP using a distressed tool along the outter edges, sponged the sides with Soft Suede and in the center of the card I sponged the ocean DSP paper with Pacific Point first, then Not Quite Navy (color soon to be retiring). Lastly made a super cool easy to make Sailor's Knot and I was Inspired here on SCS profile: mnfroggie SC313 Open Sea CASE by mnfroggie at Splitcoaststampers

What a fantastic masculine card or perfect for anyone who loves nautical themes. This is stunning. The water looks like the sun is reflecting off it all around the ship. Into my favorites.
