For the WTUI challenge this week from Michelle - Spring Means NEW Beginnings , and also for this week's CCEE Stampers challenge from Kathy. She asked us to use 3 images - not counting a sentiment.
I have to confess I used 4 stamps plus sentiment, but since all Wonderfully Worn did was add some distressing to the overall look, I didn't count it as an image. Hope that's okay! !
I stamped and masked the ship, then stamped the map in Sepia and sponged it with blues and greens and browns, and then misted it with a homemade mist.
Edges sponged with walnut stain.
Banners stamped with barn door and chipped sapphire.
I embossed the top with the stitching ef and sponged it with soot black, and added a Verve sentiment.
Base sponged with Soot Black distress stain, finished off with a white gel pen.
Open Sea, CAC Map, Banner Blast. (Also used Wonderfully Worn stamped over everything, and Verve bÂ’day sentiment. Ship stamped and masked, map stamped and sponged. Misted with homemade mist, edges sponged with Walnut Stain. Base sponged with Soot Black stain. twine...

Wow, Sabrina! Those banners really caught my eye, I thought they were paper pieced! I also had to look very closely at the stitching and still wasn't sure whether it was real what great details on this fantastic masculine card.
