Freshly made sketch - Life's a Ride

(CLICK HERE for my latest DS4J post introducing my first digital stamp for sale!)

Here I'm sliding in at the end again!!  I love Freshly Made's sketches and they are often a first source of inspiration.

 I used my one hole punch with the smallest hole to punch through the paper pieced sails. The bottom of the boat is also paper pieced and the reddish and green lines are coloured with Spectrum Noir markers.
The torn paper is Tim Holtz distress paper.
Image & sentiment: Unity Stamp Co' "Life is a beautiful ride"
Thanks for watching!
