Birthday Card ~ Set Sail (post #1)

Just a simple little card to start today out.
I used some design paper to paper piece the sails and add a little color to the sentiment.
I just love the swirls on the water and clouds and the sentiment font makes me feel happy.



*Card base 5.5 x 4.25 in.
*Sailboat and clouds are from the Get Inky Stamps Sailboat set.
*Sentiment is from the Get Inky Stamps Beary Special Cupcake set.
*Birds are from a CTMH stamp set.
*Boat paper pieced using design paper scraps and colored with the Copic B32 marker.
*Water colored using the CTMH Heavenly Blue marker.

May your day always be filled with love.
Hugs,
D~
