This is for todays WT170 challenge. The idea for it came so easily. Then try to put it all together! My paper cutter hates me. Anyhow, the background is the Atlantic Ocean out of Boston. I used it for an anniversary card for my son and dil because they took me whale watching and this picture has been in a box ever since. I dug out floral and scenic pictures, too and can see where this will be a fun thing to do again. Also, photographing a photo of water is a challenge of its own...35 tries and it still doesn't match up to the colors IRL. But...I had fun (most of the time) doing this challenge.

I have seen these waters and been whale watching there. This is terrific and what a great way to show your son how much you loved this trip. The water is such a pretty color. Love it. TFS
