For my card, I started by coloring the image and then I selected this marble paper for the background because it reminded me of water. I added a couple of sailor's knots, which I tied using Barbara Anders' tutorial, and adhered them to the strip of blue paper. My layout is based on FTL93. Pretty clean and simple for me!
