Maritime Theme

I decided to use one of my free stamps from Michael Powell  - Tall Urban - Harbour Master - and to use my Copics to colour it in in a sort of watercolour style.  It is stamped first with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. This is the result.  I will be entering this in Cards Und More Challenge #64 - Maritime.

I have backed it with black and orange card, and the background paper is from Basic Grey's Hello Luscious pad. The base card is black Bazzil and the anchor is die cut from the same, with a little twine added.  The sentiment is from There She Goes - By the Sea set and is also stamped with Memento TB ink.



I will enter it also in the following:
Through the Craftroom Door - Anything Goes
Try It on Tuesday - Anything Goes
