Here is my submission for today's color challenge: Bordering Blue, Mellow Moss, Night of Navy. I didn't use the optional Always Artichoke.
I watercolored the image after stamping in Basic Black, and sponged my clouds with a stencil I handcut. The twill is lightly sponged with Bordering Blue (which obviously needs to be darker, since you can't see it in the photo), and the HPH is sanded to give it a distressed/shiny look. There is a silver brad at the top of the anchor. I chose the DP to resemble waves in the water under the boat.
The puppies are so excited to get out of the house. They are trying to rescue FIFI (for those of you that have read papermoon04's Marie Adventures). "We are coming, Fifi!! Do not despair!"

OMG! The puppies are being naughty AGAIN! But they love their boat- especially the beautiful watercoloring. And they think the sky is gorgeous. Great idea!

This is absolutely fun, fun, fun...I love the look of it, the colors, the clouds, the fun, fun little puppies! They don't look like poodle rescuers (not foo-for enough!) Are you sure they aren't going there to steal her limelight?
