Ahoy!

Hello ...

I just had to do a card for CAS.ology before I left ...

 I saw the cue card 'Splash'


and having recently bought the Dockside stamps by Wplus9 from Make the Day Special I thought it was just perfect for what I had in mind ...

Here's what I came up with


My 'sea splash' is quite glossy ...


I inked up my paint splat stamp from Inkylicious with some distress stains ... stamped and dried it and then went over it again using Versamark and clear embossing powder ... you don't need to line up the stamp exactly ... in fact it's more effective if you don't 
I'm pleased with how it turned out ... what do you think? 


The little anchor is from my stash ...

Have a great day and take care

~ Ros ~
