I made this card using the Project Of The Month Stamps for August, from High Hopes Stamps, My favorite stamp company :) . For the month of August, this set is on sale at 25% off! I felt like putting Oberto on a dock, so I drew that in after I stamped him. I drew the hilly land and the horizon line too. The ships wheel, parrot, Oberto and "Ahoy", and treasure map are the stamps I used.
I stamped and drew on watercolor paper. Then I colored using Tombow pens and spread the color with water on a watercolor brush. Simple!
