Of course you were in NC, still to far away but at least you were on the same coast line as me! lol Believe it or not, I haven't even been in the pool yet. It's hot enough, but just haven't gotten out there. I am so loving your cards! The blues are so beautiful, almost reminds me of the old Currier and Ives pattern but in a nautical theme-they had beautiful blue images on them. I am really loving the nautical looks though and I so love your watercoloring. I'm always envious of those who can watercolor and not have leakage, I'm afraid that's not me. lol Of course I'm just a beginner, very beginner at watercoloring. And even though you had some leakage, I think that just adds to the charm of these two cards.
