Nautical at Country View Challenges

Hello to you all, We have a new challenge starting today over at Country View Challenges and our theme for this month is
Nautical
I am making a tag this time round, I started by stamping my images to my tag with 
Cornflower Blue Archival ink


Then using Faded Jeans Distress inks punched out a mask and inked up my sky.

I have coloured my image with distress inks Frayed Burlap and Mustard Seed. 

My script stamps were next using Black Versafine

And finally stamped my birds and added some ribbon
I do hope you check out the rest of the DT projects for some fab inspiration.
