This card was inspired by Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge - Nautical with an emphasis on mixed media or an artsy style project. To create the background I applied Gesso to watercolor paper with a foam applicator for a bit of texture and then added Brusho's. After heat embossing my boat image I added Brusho's to texture paste and then a touch of puff paint for the waves. I also applied Gesso to the circle frame and then colored with Distress Inks.
Here is a close up of the waves....
Amazing texture! Always a fan of the nautical theme !
