I used the "out of the box" technique and cut around the top of the lighthouse. The image is watercolored.
For the background blue paper I crumpled it, then swiped the ink pad directly onto it. I think it really adds to the water effect of this card. I punched a circle into the side of my image to see my ribbon!

I love the way you did the water!! What a great choice for the out of the box technique, too!! I started that challenge, but wound up cutting out the whole image, so I used it on another challenge! LOL! See what happens when you get old?!!!

What a beautiful card! Love the lighthouse popping up out of the panel - beautiful watercolouring too. Really love how you did that blue panel to look like water - going straight into my favs.
