Hi friends,
When I saw Sabrina's description for Thursday's WT I was determined to find a paddlewheel boat on line and I did but as the day got busier I forgot to print it and make the card. So today when I saw the IC challenge and went to Corning I found this plate and thought it looked like water and maybe mountains so it would be perfect for a river boat cruise scene. Yay, I printed the digi and got to work! I bg is colored with watercolor to go with the plate and the boat was colored with Copics and mostly cut out. I blended the bg of my cut out with the bg using the watercolors again (luckily the Memento did not bleed). I added snow pen to the churning water and heat to puff slightly. I added Stickles to it after. The edges of my back panel are dipped in Embossing fluid then into the antique silver by Stampendous (it is chucky). Stamped and cut out the sentiment, fishtailed and added an enamel dot.
Thanks for looking!

I am totally grinning that you found a steam paddle boat image and I love how you did the foam here Robin The softness of your color flow for the background is fabulous too!

Oh, thank you for finding a steamer. I know we have seen one in Switzerland, but it was moored at the time, we didn't see it steaming. So your mountains also remind me of that. The texture in the water is fabulous, and I love your silver edging too.

What an amazing image and your card is perfect! I love it. It reminds me of growing up and seeing the Delta Queen which ran up and down the Mississippi (we had a view of the river from our house). Great memories...
