  5. Oh Boy, Ahoy! This nautical look is so fresh I can smell the sea spray. It is a great card because of the image, details, colors, and your talented coloring. Now I am eager to try my hand at summery, ocean-themed cards. Thanks, you inspire me so much.

  8. This is darling, Marie. I have always loved sailor dresses. I guess it is because I was a big Shirley Temple fan when I was a little girl. I still am, truth be told. You have colored this brilliantly.
