Kathy gave the challenge for a nautical-type card this week for the CCEE Stampers. My card is a bit small being 4 x 4. It started out as a tent topper but it just wouldn't work with my larger image. So, this is it and I do like it just the same. I love nautical cards and this makes me want to head to the beach.
I colored my boat with Copics, sponged some clouds, and added a seashell. The images are all from a soon-to-be released set from Mark's Finest Papers, A Heinrich Company called Silly Shells. It is a super set.
Come on over to CCEE Stampers and make a nautical card..it can be a ship, lighthouse, boat, etc.
Just link up with us...we would love to see your creations.

Fantastic clouds and beautiful coloring on your nautical card, Brenda!
what a lovely Nautical card....really love the image and the way you have colored it the sponged clouds are just the perfect touch!!!
Of course the main color would be blue......doesn't EVERY guy choose that as his favorite? Good job combining the challenges, Brenda!
Gorgeous nautical card, Brenda! Love the bold color combo! Great coloring of the image! Hope you are having as nice weather as we are! A far cry from Monday, that's for sure!
Perfect nautical card. Love the clouds you created.
The shell is great - a good shell set would be a lovely thing to have for dressing up seaside cards with. Lovely boat image too - that shade of blue just makes me think of Greece. Instead of which I see grey skies and rain!!
I really love this card - you did a very nice job!!!
Benz,
What a pretty and serene scene you've created. THe colors are awesome and remind me of a lazy Summer day!
Just WONDERFUL!!~
Wow, that's gorgeous, Benzi! I just love yellow and blue together, and the nautical theme is fabulous!
Lovely card...great colors!
Can I go sailing with you? This is wonderful! Great colors!
This makes me want to get to the beach too! Beautiful, crisp blue and that shell and banner finish it off beautifully!
Gorgeous masculine card, Brenda! Love the color combo! Great coloring of the image and your clouds are perfection!

Beautiful Brenda!! I love the soft clouds and blues and yellow are always a delightful beachy combo :)
So wonderfully done. I love the bright colors and your clouds are fab.
love the simple boldness of the design and image....really beautifully done...a bright and happy one
What a fabulous image - your seaside scene is so calming. Pick me up when you come down 65 to the beach - I will meet you at the Chevron Station at the Pine Level exit (I Wish)! I love the blues on this lovely card Benz! Hugz!
Great sponged clouds behind this boat, Benzi! THat looks like a fabulous place to be right now. :)
