Here is my entry for this week's Less is More - paper piecing, hurray!
I printed the sentiment then masked off a square using torn edge paper for a softer finish. I stamped the boat then sponged in the sky with aqua ink. Originally, the sea was sponged with darker blue, but it looked all wrong, so I paper pieced it instead. The heart & flag were sponged with red & cut out - the heart has sellotape over it to give it a bit of gloss.

Brilliant card and sentiment, I so like your idea of using sellotape (other tapes are available -lol)to give some shine to the heart. Thanks for the tip.
