I used MB Texture Wave stencil and TH Distress Inks in saltry ocean and chipped sapphire to color. The sailboat is Die-namics Sailboat. The top edge of the boat is inked with TH chipped sapphire and a piece of cheescloth is pushed in to look like a fishing net (I hope). I styled the sails and adhered with glue and pop dots, and used the Cheery Lynn wave edger border as embossing and cut a strip for the wave. Added some sequins and pearls. I think I will send it to my friend's hubby for his birthday - I have a sentiment for the inside, but I think I will get a "happy" die for the front.

Very well done nautical card. Love the different shades of blue you have used and the little piece of gauze you have used on board the boat. Pearls are a nice addition too.

Beautifully put together...clever use of the cheesecloth and well placed pearl/sequins. Love the wavy background in the pretty colors. Great use of the sketch!
