Sketch Meets Colours


Played along My Favorite Things sketch and colour palette challenges today.

Love blue and yellow together with neutrals and this sketch is awesome. 
I used the new release Go Overboard stamp set, Let's get Nautical die-namics and Striped Stencils to make my nautical card.

I coloured yellow distress ink using the Striped stencil for the background. Diecut the banner using blue cardstock and stitched it. Love this hanging thread trend :) I then diecut the porthole about 5 times usinf kraft cardstock and glued them together to get the thickness. Added the brads. Similarly diecut the Anchor five times and glued them together. Adhered the anchor to the white circle which is then embedded inside the porthole. Brushed the anchor with Wink of Stella and finished off with glossy accent. The sentiment is stamped on a strip of white cardstock, trimmed to make the fish tail ends and foam mounted it. Love how it turned out.
