For this card I used the ‘smooth sailing’ stamp set. I set the scene with distress oxide inks and worked from there. I wanted to use the palm tree border and the simple wavy borders (because they were new), so the cute little sail boats were a nice addition to my scene. I’m really happy with the result. When I look at it I can see myself at sea watching a beautiful sunset.
