I started out by stamping the ship on Colonial White paper. I tried sponging it and it still didn't have the "rugged" look I wanted. So I crumpled the paper a few times and then did ink direct to paper on the raised crinkles of the paper. I then curled in some of the outside corners and inked them directly with the ink pad. Still not sure I love the card. It just looks "off" to me. Not complete - but I'm not sure what I'm missing or could add to it. My husband likes it just fine.
If you want to see the rest of the saying (I put part outside and part inside) you can see the full saying
HERE. All stamps are from
Bon Ton Stamps.
Let me know what you think...like it? don't like it? what is it missing? or is it missing anything?
Have a great Tuesday!
Jane
