OTWC #52

Wow, it's been a week since I've posted!  So incredibly busy this time of year in our house.....baseball, baseball, and more baseball!  And now that my daughter is playing T-ball, we're even busier!  Back to the post today........another Off The Wall Craftiness color inspiration. 

NAUTICAL COLORS




I had so much fun with this week's colors using the newest Wilson Designs stamp set:  Nauti-Cool.
This is my favorite WD stamp set to date!  But you wait.....there is more Wilson Designs goodness to come starting next week!  Be on the lookout for the release starting on Monday with a sneak peek! 



Pretty simple but I LOVE how this turned out!  Some paper piecing with the sail using Bitty Box DP from PTI.  I wanted the "boxes" to be a bit darker and less noticable so I colored over the paper with my Copic marker.  It really made a huge difference.  Using my colorless blender, I added some polka dots to the boat!
 
This week's sponsor is...........you guessed it!  Wilson Designs
So go make a project and link it up for a chance to win some Wilson Designs stamps!

Stamps:  Nauti-Cool (Wilson Designs)
Paper:  SS White, Blueberry Sky, Enchanted Evening, Bitty Box DP (all PTI)
