Summer Breeze

This week's challenge over at One Stop Cards and Crafts is to use the phrase 'Summer Breeze' as inspiration.
Living next to the sea, here in Hampshire, my mind turned immediately to thoughts of sailing (although I don't sail my myself).
This image is by Hobby Arts and was stamped using Cat's Eyes chalk ink. The paper is Cuddly Buddly, Fairy Fun, the shade, appropriately for this card, is called Aqua! The sentiment is from SU.
A little embossing and ribbon completed the card.
I quite like monochrome cards!
