I decided to make this card when I was inspired by a very plain card I saw in a magazine. It was entirely white with one little square about 1" across with a stamped image and a sentiment. Needless to say that this card looks nothing like it!!!
I started by stamping the images on three little squares and triple embossing them. ( I did still intend to make 3 cards at this point).
Then I decided to bung them all on one DL card. I made the background by stamping with a script stamp, colouring the card to a pinky colour with distress in and my inkylicous brushes, then matted and layered the panel and the tiles and stuck it all together.
Hope you like it.

Lovely to see you at The Ribbon Reel this week Linda, your card is perfect for our challenge. A fab design, and the stamps are lovely. I love your nautical themed card too, that knot is a great embellishment, and the torn maps look so antique!
Thanks for joining us at The Ribbon Reel this week!
