November ISC Line:
On the Shore
By the Bay
Background Series: Netting
Rocks on the Shore

For my panoramic card, I used the On the Shore and Netting images. I stamped the Shore image twice on pale blue fiber c/s using charcoal chalk ink. I stamped the boats a second time on ivory c/s. I used markers and a blender to color the background and the boats. The second set of boats was cut out, attached to a like piece of cardboard (for added dimension) and then attached over the base image.

The netting was stamped onto a piece of charcoal c/s and layered behind the left side of the boats. I added a piece of drywall mesh that I stained black w/ ink over the join area of the charcoal c/s and map dp.  A little sponging w/ the Distress Ink was done around the edges of the dp. I added the destination sticker to a small piece of the dp and cut it into a tag shape.  Everything is attached to a long card 9 1/2 x 4 1/8 (fits a #10 business envelope). Distress stickles were added to the waves.

Thanks so much for stopping by! Please be sure and check out the rest of the ISC Architects. I know they have some beautiful creations for you to see.
