A fun card using the sketch from Poetic Artistry - Mojo Monday 35.
For the clouds, I cut a template from scratch paper and then just sponged around, moving the template around. Both soft Sky and Bashful Blue were used on the clouds. For the water, I misted a sea sponge with a little water and then inked with Cool Caribbean and used a wiping motion across the paper. The boat was stamped and cut out.
Lower left image was stamped and then I used the WWC for the sand. I lightly colored in a back and forth direction and then tapped the color on the paper all around to try and get it to look like rocks. Then I used a blender pen lightly to go around and blend. The water is done the same as in the upper image.

I really like this card. I just got this set last week and may have to lift this. I just sent you a PM asking about the negative inking. I would love to know how you did it.
