A card made for a swap, inspired by several nautical cards seen in the featured stamper gallery. This card uses a single piece of navy cs 5.5 x 4.25 as a mat for the rest of the panels. Next layer is 5.25 x 8 scored at 4" to make a smaller card. Stamped, die cut circle and frame. Smallest card is 5 x 7.5 inches, scored at 3.75" designed to go in backwards. I did a colour wash on that before stsmping seagulls and adhering die cut sailboats, so that one could be seen through the window.
This is a totally monochromatic card except for one little red embellishment.

Great nautical and masculine card. Love that you highlighted your "view" with the blue bg instead of keeping it white. It really makes it standout. Great layout and images.

What a lovely take on one of my cards! It's an honor to have been chosen as featured stamper. Your card is wonderful -- I really like the background piece to tie everything together.
