Waving Hello

Here’s a simple nautical design I created using this week’s sketch from Freshly Made Sketches. I used the Paper Smooches Wicked Nauticool stamp set and the coordinating Nauticool dies to put this one together.

I colored the sailboat image with Spectrum Noir markers, then used dimensional dots to attach it to a panel with a pale blue cardstock “sky” and some patterned paper “water.” There was just enough room on the panel to stamp the set’s “waving hello” sentiment at the top in blue ink.

I layered the scene on a red cardstock panel, then added a few notch-ended strips at the bottom. The scene is adhered to a light blue panel embossed with a rounded chevron pattern. I wrapped the left edge of the panel with red baker’s twine before adhering it to a blue card base.
