"Thanks a Ton" in Mint and Navy

Before I show you today's card let me welcome my new followers 

and ra A (sorry, couldn't find a blog)

with this quote by David Steindl-Rast

It isn't joy that makes us grateful,
it's gratitude that makes us joyful.

Now to the card:
When I saw the colors for the new challenge at Inkspirational I immediately thought of the cute whale from Clearly Besotted and made this card:






Stamps: Clearly Besotted (whale, sentiment)
Other: Stencil (Memory Box)

If you click on the picture to enlarge it you will see the Stickles I added to the waves and the sentiment because I felt it needed something else.

What a delightful color combo, perfect for this happy little whale swimming in the mint waves. Love the stenciling. And of course the sparkle of the stickles is great on the waves...just as when sunlight strikes the water! TFS & Happy wkend.
