Sunset Cruise

This is my interpretation of Suepup's sketch for the monthly challenge for the Scraps of Darkness July kit "Marrakesh Express".  This kit features papers from Creative Imaginations, flowers from Prima, rub-ons from K & Company and so much scrappy goodness!  I just love the vibrancy of this kit!  This photo is of my husband and I in Bar Harbor, Maine on a sunset cruise we took.  I cut the beautiful sun out on my Silhouette and painted it with the Twinkling H2O's that came in the Color Add-on for this kit. 
 
 I cut the ship's helm out with my Silhouette and then embossed it with Tim Holtz's Distressed Embossing Powder in Vintage Photo.  I love the texture it gave it!

 I used one of the Pink Paislee's Artisan Elements circles for the picture of ship.  I painted it with a combination of Twinkling H2O's water color paints and Smooch Ink in Espresso.  This photo doesn't do it justice.  It just glimmers and the colors have so much depth to the naked eye.
 I used a piece of gauze from my stash and inked it with Distress Stains in Wild Honey and Tattered Angels Chalkboard mist in Hot Chocolate.
