Ride the Tide

Just a quick post to share today as I wanted to play along with the current Fusion Card Challenge.

I had a ton of fun playing with this set from Ellen's, unfortunately it is retired, but still so fun.

I used distress inks for the sea (Salty Ocean) and a hint for the sky (Tumbled Glass).  I made a pole for my seagull to stand on and to hang my life ring on.  I used Copics to color the bird, life ring and boat.  I paper pieced the sails.  I stamped the waves on the water and used a white pen to color them in.  The clouds were stamped, colored with Copics, cut out and mounted.  Lastly I stamped the sentiment on more patterned paper and mounted it.  Inside, I added additional sentiment of "Stay Salty My Friend."

Thanks for visiting!
