Our house is in chaos this morning owing to the heating engineer being here to flush out the radiators - oh joy. I've left hubby to it, 'cos the sound of running water freaks me out and I think we have leaks everywhere!!
Anyway I'm putting another card on my blog today - this is one I made at the request of my neighbour. She asked me to make one for her dad's birthday and she later told me he was really pleased with it. Think I blushed with pride!!!

I had seen Jenny (from Hobby Art stamps where these stamps came from) do this technique with the picture mounted on foam above a black and white image. I loved it, so I thought I would do that and I then added the boat and seagull images also on foam tape. I used my Promarkers to colour it in and smudged a little Distress Ink underneath the boat/seagull for sand.
Hope you like it.
