Our theme this week at Stampin Up Only is nautical. I don't have any SU stamps with a nautical theme so I had to think outside the box for this one a bit.
I had great fun creating this scene - starting out with the fabulously versatile SU background stamp Drybrush. This stamp could so easily be over-looked in the catalogue but I find it fabulous. Here I've used three colours on the one stamp to create the background scene - I used Night of Navy for the top and the middle and Crumb Cake for the bottom. I used SU High Tide for the stamps. I added Bermuda Bay for the middle to create the wave ripples.
I added the last bit of that gorgeous retired ribbon at the bottom. Some Wink of Stella on the sea just to give it a bit of shine.
