Sabrina's WT was to have a vessel that floats on water. Mine is a small sailboat which I hand sketched, using SU 's Sail Away as a guide. My card also includes challenges from today's DTGD14 list.

You're doing a fabulous job adding extra details to stamps, Sallie. Love the sandy look you've given the background, and oh, the card is so me. It might be 30 years since I lived by the sea but I still miss it, in all its moods.

Sallie, this is one of my favorite SU images (but I think it's retired now - yes?) I absolutely adore your hand sketched sailboat, and your watercolored sea is just outstanding. I can smell the sea breezes and feel the sand under my feet. Because I'm a navy wife, the colors of the sea and it's surrounding is one of my favorites. Thank you for playing in my challenge today.
