Hi everyone! I posted a Trends article on StampNation featuring the Nautical theme last year, seems like the trend is still going strong. This card was inspired by The Card Concept challenge (Clean & Simple) and the sketch over at Freshly Made Sketches.
I love the silver anchors in the inspiration photo so I incorporated that on my card.
Thank you for visiting and have a great day!
Cardstock: Night of Navy, Whisper White, Silver paper from SU!
Ink: Night of Navy, Real Red
Stamps: Dockside Backgrounds (Wplus9), Hero Arts sentiment
Accessories: Anchor Die (Paper Smooches), Red embroidery floss
Fabulous! Great use of the sketch.

ReplyDeleteI had to drop anchor to slow down enough to get a good long look at this beauty of a card. Almost had a shipwreck in the process. JD/Jill my other half didn't tell me about this one. Shiver me timbers. Outstanding job.
