A new Color Inspiration

Here is a new one... Kristina Werner's Color Inspiration... It's from the Pier I Imports Catalog. It uses the colors Whisper White, Pumpkin Pie, Bashful Blue and Brilliant Blue.
This was a challenge for me because I NEVER EVER use Brilliant Blue. I mean it's been years. But, I was pretty happy with how the card turned out. I used Life's a Breeze which I is one of the free sets I got from my SAB sales and I haven't had a chance to use yet.
I used markers to color the boat multiple colors. Then I masked the boat and took some scrap paper and ripped it to make wave and sponged the water with Bashful Blue. I also sponged the sun using the 1/2 inch circle punch and Summer Sun ink. I added the bubbles in Versamark for a background, the Pumpkin Pie designer paper from Bali Breeze for a little contrast and a few Brilliant Blue brads for some texture. So, whadaya think?

Set:
Life's a Breeze

Ink: Brilliant Blue, Versamark
Cardstock: Bashful Blue, Brilliant Blue, Pumpkin Pie, Whisper White
Accessories: Brilliant Blue, Pumpkin Pie, Green Galore Markers, Bali Breeze DSP, 1/2" Circle Punch, Bold Bright Brads, Stampin' Sponge, Dimmensionals
