I just love your sea, very clever and the seagull is the perfect bird to be soaring over it xx
A fabulous sea Bonnie, with the seagull just the right distance away, I could be at the local beach with the wind whipping up the surf and hearing the cry of the gulls. Fabulous.

Gorgeous seagull and I love how you created the ocean with your splash technique, Bonnie...it's so realistic, especially with your color palette! Such a lovely encouragement card, my friend! xx
Bonnie I am in love with this card!
What a gorgeous background which as you rightly said is perfect for your gull. The sentiment is awesome!
Fabulous! x
Perfect card Bonnie. Admiring it I can smell the sea and hear the seagull. Hugs, Sonja
I can almost smell the ocean this beautifully colored gull is flying over. What a wonderful way to depict "Flight". Makes for such a lovely card.
OH my gosh! That background could not be more perfect with your seagull. Thanks for the reminder about that technique too. It does make a perfect body of water for your die cut.
You always amaze me. The splash background couldn't be more perfect with your seagull. I must try this technique!
WOW - what an amazing card Bonnie - love that image and the perfect background to go with it
Stay safe
Blessings

Bonnie this is just fabulous!! Wonderful frothy ocean, and I can almost hear that gull - GORGEOUS!

This is so evocative! Stunning card!
What a perfect background for your seagull Bonnie...it looks like he's soaring up and out of the waves! Beautiful, beautiful card my friend!! Hugs. :0)
If I don't try to duplicate this, my life as I know it will be over!
Give me your blessing to try and copy you. You know they say that imitation is the best form of flattery or something like that. No matter how hard I will try, my card will always be an imitation and not the real thing.
Seeing that I live a stones throw to the ocean I think I should make this card.
Your seagull card is amazingly wonderful - that water looks so real!
Everything about this scene is perfect and beautiful - have I drooled enough!!!

That technique made a perfect sea, Bonnie. I am in awe of how it turned out. Actually I'm in awe of the entire card. The seagull is perfect and what a wonderful sentiment to go with it.
Your pretty background is spot-on for the card and inspirational word. Great card, Bonnie
This is awesome, Bonnie! I love it! The splashed watercolor background did work with your handsome seagull. It looks just like ocean. Coloring of the seagull and the texture of the card base are wonderful too.

WOW .... what great movement and the most fabulous 'water/ocean' Bonnie x. The seagull looks so happy in his watery environment and you've made me so happy too...a real stunner x.
Amazing background Bonnie, the perfect crashing waves and a seagull flying through.Awesome card ♥
Beautiful creation of a wavy foaming sea! So perfect with that lovely seagull.
That background is just perfect for the seagull! The splashed watercolour looks as though he is flying over the ocean. Awesome card, my friend! xx
Wow..Bonnie, Your Splash technique was perfect for your detailed seagull as it flew over the ocean waves! Love your textured background and sentiment too. TFS my friend. Love and Hugs...Nancy
So beautiful ...
What a beautiful background you had in your stash Bonnie - a lovely technique used and perfect colors for your soaring seagull! xx
Your sea breeze looks so amazing, Bonnie. You made it so perfect, I can see single drops of water broke off the mane of the wave. Seagull makes the card come to life and you can almost feel the movement. WOW! What a project! What an inspiration !!

This is lovely, Bonnie, it captures the atmosphere beautifully, especially in that sea green colour.
A beautiful card Bonnie! I love the water coloured background!
