On the Seas

 
 How adorable is Primrose On the Seas?  I love her retro swimming hat!  I coloured her with my pens, added stickle to the sea, and then cut her out using my decagon nesties.  I love blue and kraft cardstock, and layered mats.  Having matted Primrose onto the kraft, I added a doilly.  Finally some ribbon, twine, flowers and pearls, and a printed sentiment to finish.

Primrose is adorable, as is this card. I love the fresh colour palette and the sweet checked paper. The doily and twine provide an awesome contrast. Thanks for joining our Natural Materials challenge at Craft Your Passion. I hope we see you again soon.
