I joined a Swap group over at SCS- and Kelly was the 1st hostess- with a theme of Nauti-cal.
I watercolored the image from Impression Obsession on Confetti cardstock and used some older SU DP for the card base.
And, I also made a 2nd card:
For this card, I used an image from Our Daily Bread Designs. I sponged on color and added kept the design CAS. I bought this image over 3 years ago, and am just inking it up for the first time......
Challenges:
Retro Rubber challenge- Brads and use an image 1 yr old (mine is 3 yrs old) for 2nd card.
Come and Get it- Things that start with B- boat- card #1
Thanks for stopping by!

Shelly, love the nautical themed cards! I definitely recognized the older SU DSP. Thanks for including Retro Rubber in your stamping fun this week!
Oh I am the luckiest lady - I got to drool over and pet them both! Your work is sensational - truly IRL they are just a vision! I love the softness they each have and how peaceful you've created a nautical scene - gorgeous work, my dear! ♥
Shelly these are gorgeous - love that lighthouse and have used it quite often, but never, I feel, as well as you have used it here.
