For 2 challenges:
CAS color challenge to use dark blue and white.
TLC to chose a background technique from the SCS resources.
I chose the acrylic block technique. Had tried it before with not a lot of luck, thought I would try a again. Inked block and stamped on paper, then stamped image on top. Added ribbon and sentiment. TFL

Love this wonderful masculine card!!! That ship stamp is just amazing! And with the technique you used, it looks like it is sailing thru the mist. Awesome card!!!

Carolyn, a distinctive and elegant card for a man. Your bg technique turned out VERY well and perfect with the sailing ship...like one can sense the wind.

Success this time around! Great card! Thx for reminding me of this technique! I always forget it so easily because it's one of those "smack yourself in the forehead" techniques. ;-)
