Nautical My Besties

There are only two of us doing this one as there is an extra week in this month..And as it was my choice and happens to be my Dads Bithday I chose this one ,because he was in the Royal Nave for 23 yrs and I put to Daddy's little girl on it..That was me lol..memories xx ..I coloured her in with polychromos pencils onto Neenah card.Please note though that the image you buy is only the Bestie and the little boat..The background is all my own art work.I used an 8x8 card and a couple of pieces of paper from my paper stash as a background,sorry cannot remember as they are seperate from a pad and no doubt years old,but were just right for this project.One was mounted on the craft card for the insert and the other for the front. The Topper was a large one so really did not need any extra embellishment as this took in the region of eight hours to colour and add art work too also ..I added this with 3D glue gell and then put a sentiment down the side .. This one is dedicated to my Dad ..Love you forever and a day xxx
