I immediately zeroed in on the "I whaley like you" sentiment and thought there'd be no better way to emphasize the "whaley" than with a whole pod of whales.

I blended the three colors of oxides and then stamped and masked and stamped the whales, using the same colors I'd used for blending. Popped the sentiment with Versafine black on the crisp white.
Then I wanted to use the "Huge Thanks" sentiment and went for more stamping and masking and stamping. This time with the wave image. I added some dots too to strengthen the churning waves idea.
