I love how this card turned out. My DH's bd is in January, but I am saving it for him. He will love it. And the sails got even whiter after I took the picture. Looks so cool!! I stamped the ship in Blue Bayou and then embossed with distress EP.Oh, before I did this, I stamped with Aida bg stamp, then did the ship. I water colored the boat, bleached the sails (which I was torn, because the card is distressed and shouldn't they look old?...oh well, it's only a card...it is not going to be hanging in the Louvre!). I sponged around the edges and distressed a layer. I realized that I bleached part of the stamped image, where you should be able to see through 2 sails. So I fixed that up after I took the picture. Looks more realistic that my current picture. If I ever get around to it, I'll replace the picture at a later date.
