For Cathy's "Sea Worthy" challenge today, I decided to use the Monthly Themes inspiration photo. I thought it was so pretty, so I tried to recreate the color of it using my Spectrum Noir markers on this FTHS digi. My water ended up rainbow and crazy looking, so I sponged over the whole card with Distress inks and ended up with bluer water than I wanted. It's growing on me though. I finished by dragging my Black Soot ink pad around the edges. This is going to the wife of my son's Karate Sensei. She has lymphoma. Fortunately, they say it's a very treatable type.

This caught my eye immediately, it's so beautiful. I like the look of the water and the sparkle where the setting sun is hitting it. Your sky is amazing and that sailboat image is extra special because you can see the people in it. What a wonderful card to depict hope for your friend.

Sunrises and sunsets are the prettiest at the ocean. Your card is beautiful, and makes me wish I were on that boat enjoying this God moment.
