I wanted to do a special masculine card for a sailing enthusiast. The lower half is dry embossed with cuttlebug folder and the flat side was inked with caramel prior to running it through the cuttlebug.
Image is watercolored and clouds masked/sponged.
Thanks for looking!

Hi Laurie! Great, great artwork here! Love your watercoloring (as always) and the great use of designer paper and embossing just really works and all the interesting details, the ribbon, the ribbon slide, the fab brad! Beautiful stitching, too!
