In honor of Columbus day, the CCEE Stampers challenge was to make a card that related to this day.
I have had the background stamp and the bottle for a long time, but had never inked it up. I know you don't usually see a sailboat in a bottle, but it was the only boat I had that was not a cruise ship.
We would love to have you play along. You can find the other team members cards, as well as the details of the challenge Here.

Holy mackeral, Shirt - what a super creative card!! Love the antique look of your sponging, the 'manly ' look of your card and the great "ship in the bottle" . Though I am sure Columbus' 3 ships were bigger than this sailboat, I LOVE how you took this idea and RAN with it!!
Five big anchors and a Yo Ho HO for this card!! Love it!! Your mojo is on FIRE!! LYMI!!
