I immediately thought of a cute retired stamp set I recently bought by the Sweet Stamp Shop called "Sail Away Sayings." I colored in the block letters with a Sakura Gelly Roll "Clear Star" glitter pen for some sparkle. The dry-embossed bottom edge also serves as an "anchor" for my whole card.
I'm also linking up my card to The Challenge #40 where the theme is also "Nautical." How about that!
Be sure to link up your clean and simple NAUTICAL card by noon on Monday (Central time). Check out the definition of "clean and simple" at the CASology blog HERE if you aren't sure what that means! You will also be inspired by the many ways our Design Team and Guest Designer interpreted the cue this week...be sure to check out their blogs!
