You've done an awesome job on this one Kitty, that background is fabulous! I was very impressed to read that you'd painted it yourself... I thought it was patterned paper. I love the way you've added the different nautical elements as well as the base card stock that looks like rolling hills. Great job!
ReplyDeleteCheers,
Beccy
The background turned out fabulous! Love it - nice Nautical card here - great work Karen!
ReplyDeleteAs others noted, you did a great job with your first try at acrylics. I know from experience that creating the feathery look you attained is not easy! Also like the stitched edging on the various pieces. It can be hard to make a nautical card, but you did it splendidly! Thanks for joining us at Penny's Paper Crafting Challenge. DT Kathy
