For Cathy's "Sea Worthy" challenge today, I decided to use the Monthly Themes inspiration photo. I thought it was so pretty, so I tried to recreate the color of it using my Spectrum Noir markers on this FTHS digi. My water ended up rainbow and crazy looking, so I sponged over the whole card with Distress inks and ended up with bluer water than I wanted. It's growing on me though. I finished by dragging my Black Soot ink pad around the edges. This is going to the wife of my son's Karate Sensei. She has lymphoma. Fortunately, they say it's a very treatable type.
What a stunning card! I am so impressed with how skillfully you blended your colors and made this scene really come to life. I also like the loose sketch lines that are included and how you did the distressed edge. Beautiful work and I'm so glad you shared this with us for this week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge!
