Swirly sea card
It's week 81 over at 'Less is More' & this time it's a theme
Tearing
I decided to use my watercolouring paper for a change. I
didn't make the mistake of using it as a card base this time
as I find any card warps when you wet it....lesson learned
there. I just used them as panels , the swirliness of the blue
reminded me of water and foam swirling around, although
it could also be sky too I suppose.Anway I went with a sea
theme and added white embossed swirls and then some deeper
blue inking .I used some tearing at the bottom of each panel
& added some glamour dust amongst the 'spray' .I will add
a sentiment when I decide who to send it too.
ps. another hot day here again, we are in and out of the pool .
My son and family came yesterday and are coming again today
lol ....the draw of the cool swimming pool is enough I think.
My grandson joined us too this time for a brief paddle
and loved it, pic below.

Fabulous sea card Viv, almost stormy sea I think! The best photo is you and Alex though, he looks as if he's having a wonderful time, I can't wait for our French trip for Charlie to keep up his swimming lessons:) Just had to grab the washing in, it's very dark and rolling thunder!! Now it's raining:(

I'm so sorry that I'm late in visiting this week, but I have been on a wonderful cruise to Norway where I didn't have very good Internet coverage!
Thanks so much for your gorgeous contribution!
