Congrats to Loll! Fabulous gallery! This is a little Sneaky Peek of some fabulous new images to be released on tomorrow morning's ODBD Release! I chose her Sail the Ocean Bluecard to case. I kept the ship at sea theme, the general layout and red, white & blue theme, but I had to change the card format to fit my image and added a couple more layers. I used different images, papers and made a band w/ punched out stars in place of the twine.
After stamping the ship image, I sponged on some different blue inks and added just a touch of red to a few areas. The compass rose was stamped on the navy background w/ indigo ink and on the little side pieces of the sentiment w/ fired brick ink. The horizontal band was assembled with leftover strips and I punched the white band w/ a small star punch. The finished card is 5.50 x 4.25.
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups and details are on my blog: The Write Stuff
