On Vaca With My "Sisters"

March's Sisterhood swap was hosted by Jeanette, who chose vacation as her theme. I guess she was tired of snow...

My first plan was too do a camping cards, cuz that is how I tend to take my vacations. But I started seeing all sorts of ads for Carnival Cruise Lines and I thought that looked like a fun vacation. I have never been on a cruise.

First I found my very old masks for sponging. One of clouds, another of water. By the end of all this sponging my wrist was VERY tired, but well worth the result I thought. In fact I spent a fair amount of time just gazing at the landscape (waterscape?) I had created.

I cut out the boat from SU's Boatloads of Love, colored it with Prismacolor Markers (not as well as I had hoped, but I am still perfecting my technique *wink*), and mounted it on Pop-dots. The heart was done with a paper punch I had received in one of the many "secret _____" swaps in which I participate. (Thanks!)

I admit to having a scattered brain while putting this all together. I had meant to make the LifeSavers out of eyelets, but forgot until they were already on Pop-Dots. I also considered stamping "You Float My Boat" but did not love the way it looked up there in the clouds and thought perhaps people would prefer their cards sans sentiment - I know I often do.
