I had decided to use The Open Sea and make a masculine card. This took a while to come together but I'm quite happy with the end result.
I stamped down the left hand side of the card base with the ledger image from The Open Sea set. For the main image, I colored the ship using markers and stamped onto Crumb Cake. I then masked it and over-stamped the globe image using Crumb Cake ink. The sentiment comes from an old hostess set called Occasional Quotes.
Thanks for looking.
