A while back a friend helped us out with our boat and I made this card to say thank you. At the time I didn’t post it although I always meant to, Yesterday I was going through some of my older photographs I came across it and realized that it fits the challenge at Colorful Options. I figured I may as well enter it into the challenge even though it was made some time ago.
The papers are all from my stash and the one with the anchors was a gift from a friend who purchased it at Michaels. The sail boat is a from a Hero Arts set and was stamped on to the die cut panel. The white frame is something that was left over after I had die cut the center piece and I thought it was good enough to frame the smaller layer allowing all the PP to show through. The sail of the boat has a bit of sparkle added but it looks kind of smeary (is that a word) in the photo. The die cut thank you is from an old Sizzix set of word dies. Thanks for taking a look and hope you are having a fun day.
