Ship in a Bottle Card

Let you Dreams Set Sail!

Today I wanted to share another fun card using our Message in a Bottle Stamp set and coordinating die! I created this fun bottle image by stamping and cutting out the bottle and the ship with our new coordinating dies. I colored the boat with copics and added a light blue border to the bottle with copics too. Then I also cut another bottle shape out of the vellum (I didn't stamp on the vellum, just used the bottle shape) and I layered that over the top to give it a "frosted" bottle look. I attached some brown and white bakers twine around the bottle neck to help hold it in place.  Then I added a piece of light colored burlap behind the bottle. 

The base of the card was a white cards tock that I splattered with distress inks and then I added the "Let your dreams set sail" sentiment, also from the  Message in a Bottle stamp set. I also added a strip of red and white stripes to add to the nautical look. I am having SO much fun with this new stamp set and dies too!
