CASology Week 159: Aquatic





Hello and happy Tuesday.  It's time for another challenge at CASology.  Our cue word this week is AQUATIC.  I went with a straight forward interpretation and used the cute little sail boat from PTI Guiding Lights.  For the waves/water, I created a stencil out of the Lil Inker Leaf Pattern Cover Up die and then sponged a variety of Distress inks over the stencil.  



Now, it's your turn.  How are you inspired by AQUATIC?  I hope you play along this week. Please remember to keep it Clean and Simple.

Head on over to the CASology blog and gather some inspiration from the design team.
