Cards in Envy - No Patterned Paper

For this week's challenge at Cards in Envy, the challenge is No Patterned Paper (Make a card WITHOUT any patterned paper).  You can see the challenge here. All cards must fit into a standard size envelope for easy mailing. 

This card was really fun to make. I made the background using Oxide inks and splashes of water on watercolor paper. I then water-colored my whale and die cut him out. I stamped the waves in Oxide inks (that's the beauty of Oxide inks vs Distress inks, you can stamp directly into the Oxide inks and it comes out beautiful). I fussy cut the waves and adhered it onto the card.
