Aqua Frigate

Image
By sparklingblackrose
Good morning everyone, hope you are well :-) Sorry I have been quiet, am still struggling with what seems like an everlasting cold! Here I am with a card from my challenge to myself to use up my existing stash. For this card I used Woodware stamps for a Frigate image which I coloured in Promarkers and Flexmarkers, Papermania Aqua Capsule collection papers and gems, American Crafts polka dot ribbon, Fantastic Ribbons Polka dot ribbon, Corregated Cardstock and Silver cardstock cut with a nestie.
I placed the nesties apart from each other to give the feeling of movement.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:
Creative Stamp Friends: Male Card
Stamptacular Sunday: No rules
Paper Crafting Journey: Ribbon or Twine
Simply Create Challenge: Linky Party
Addicted to Stamps Challenge: Use Markers
Paper Pretties: Masculine Cards
Pennys Paper Crafting Challenges: Ribbon and/or Buttons
Clearly I stamp: All Tied Up
Crafty Catz Weekly: A Male Card
Stampin for the Weekend: Anything Goes

Thank you for looking and for all your lovely comments :-)
