The Open Sea #141: A Ship in the Night

I've recently fallen {back} in love with this stamp set. I've only used it a couple of times so it feels new and exciting again. I created this card for my addition to Stylin' Stampin' INKspiration's Framelits Friday post. I couldn't be more pleased with how this turned out. Since it was a Framelits theme, I wanted LOTS of layers. I think I accomplished that. It's a fatty! Double postage for sure. I love how much depth this card has. Perfect for a nautical theme, right?

*The background for the card was created using sponges and markers.
*I stamped and colored a second ship and cut the sails out and added it to the original stamp. Popping one side of the sail out with dimensionals. It gave it an amazing 3-D look.

Supplies:
Cardstock ~ Crumb Cake, Marina Mist, Whisper White, Chocolate Chip (Core'dinations)
Ink ~ Crumb Cake, So Saffron, Soft Suede, Baked Brown Sugar, Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Marina Mist, Not Quite Navy, Night of Navy, Black StazOn
Stamp Sets ~ The Open Sea, Itty Bitty Banners, Gorgeous Grunge
Embellishments ~ 1/8" mini brads, hemp twine
