My sister in law Judy's family is very big into sailing, having lived surrounded by the Great Lakes, so this will go to her. I wrote her family name on the sailboat I painted. I used three dies and the masking tape stamping technique for the ABC15M challenge. I used a US sailing stamp (painting by Winslow Homer), which I'm going to move to the bottom right. I love the quote: The sailor is an artist whose medium is the wind. Webb Chiles, age 79, has completed four world circumnavigations, set two world records and was the first American to round Cape Horn single handedly.

Seeing your card just reminds me of the nautical cards you find in Door County. It is so well done, and the added personal name on the boat is just terrific. TFS

Beautifully shaped sailboat and the personalization will certainly make this a keepsake card for your SIL's family. I had never stopped to consider that a sailor could be an artist so this sentiment opened my eyes to all kinds of possibilities.
