Smooth Sailing Easel Card ODBDSLC115

I made this card for Our Daily Bread Designs ODBDSLC115 Tearing or Distressing.

For this card I used the ship from ODBD's new set Surging Sea. The sentiments and matching compass are from their new set Smooth Sailing.

All coloring is Copics, and all distressing is Distress Antique Linen. The DP is K & Co, matted with some linen textured metallic Antique gold CS I've had for ages. All the motifs are mounted dimensionally, and an additional compass was cut from the Smooth Sailing set and mounted dimensionally over the compass on the ship stamp. I also stamped the compass with gold, then stamped the Louisa May Alcott saying over that compass with VersaFine Onyx Black, and cut the saying out with Spellbinders Labels Twenty One. The Smooth Sailing was cut with Spellbinders Fancy Tags One.

To add extra interest, I tied a carrick bend made with two strands, and a square knot made with four strands with hemp twine.
