At The Craft Barn challenge blog, we illustrate for the letter S this fortnight.
I chose sailboat. I just recently drew a sailboat for a postcard. Why not give my simple little pattern, that takes no drawing skills, a little extra life. So here it lives in my altered dictionary forever more.
It's all made of tracing paper. We had a twist this time that our illustration has to include a shell. I had a better plan than what you see, but I couldn't find a shell that would fit the plan.
Happy sailing!

Lovely page Annie!
Love the simple shape. Wonder which one of the seven seas it will be sailing. Flying the flag for the U. S.
That is a sweet little sailboat Annie.
You do make the best dictionary pages - very simple and very effective. I see your sweet little shell. Oh yes - just sit right down and draw your own images. Oh dear Annie -- no one likes a show off --- . Love the design on the boat too! I guess you drew your little shell too!

Perfect little sailboat and shell 😊
Such a sweet little sailing boat! Looks very peaceful there on your page next to that all important shell! Lou x
Great drawing - love your little sail boat!
Such a cute little sailboat - and I love your subtle shell too.
Oh a drawing that isn't a drawing, it's a pattern, OK. And I see words on the sail, bird words? How clever you are the way you create your tracing paper pictures and the way you attach them to this dictionary whose pages (I am guessing) are quite thin?
I found the actual dictionary definition of the word rather amusing.
I went over to the Craft Barn to see if you were forbidden to use "S" is for Shell, but you weren't, how strange.
Love your little sailboat, and an excellent idea to use tissue paper.
Your little sailboat and shell are very sweet. I am truly smitten with your altered dictionary. Embracing Creaive Bliss...
Cool little sailboat and nice placing the shell :)
A great little sailboat and so nice to have captured it on your page.
A sweet boat and I'm glad you managed to fit a shell in.
Great illustration of your chosen word, and all by your fair hand!
Another lovely page Annie love your sail boat

I can see this was an easy twist for you, because your lovely sailboat and shell are adorable. I like how you captured the boat on patterned tissue. It's wonderful!
great use of the shell. the sail boat is perfect.
Very cleverly done! Love your tracing paper pieced sailboat with its ethereal quality and the different writings on the sails. It suits the dictionary page so well and love how you incorporated the shell too x
Great drawing and good word choice! xx
I love the simplicity of your sailboat and the little shell xx
