Bon Voyage

Hi everybody! Just had fun making this card - was trying to get the feel of an elegant cruise liner in the 1920s/30s.
The stamp is called 'Backward Glance' - don't know the manufacturer. I embossed it in Blue Pearl EP. The two papers are from the Cosmo Cricket Salt Air collection and I cut the liner out from this same set. I made the circle of words on my PC and printed it onto coloured cardstock - cs is a paler aqua green in real life.
I'd like to enter this for:

Hi
I have that stamp and the name has escaped me but I believe it is a Canadian company.
Beautiful card.

I love this card - the layout is really nice. It looks like an advert from the 1920s something very Hollywood! Cxx
