C4E sketch #31

Ok I know!!!...... I haven't posted all week!! I have been busy crafting and have lots to share but time has just run away again and it's Sunday again and time for the C4E sketch challenge!! I will pop back this week with my C4E May challenge makes and some LO's I have done.
You can check out the C4E sketch and DT cards HERE
My card was made for a family member who celebrates his 70th birthday this month. I Made the invites for his celebration a couple of months ago. I have used the same sail boat digital stamp (as yet unreleased!) Coloured using watercolours and H2O's.
I have kept the design clean and simple using few embellishments. The life ring embellishment was made from a circle of card with some Aida thread wrapped around it. The greeting is computer generated.

For this card I decorated the inside of the card too, loosely following the sketch again.



I guess that's all from me Thanks for stopping by!!
