I borrowed this stamp from a fellow stamper and some of her ideas for this card.  (Thanks Patty).  I embossed the background with an anchor and added some die cuts of an anchor and the steering wheel of a ship.  I hand colored the scene and added a sentiment on the inside of have a beautiful day.

Keeping with the nautical theme here is a card I made for one of my card groups I am in.  I used an anchor embossing folder for the background and an anchor on the front. I tried making the anchor look aged by using black ink along the edges. On the inside I stamped a sailor and made a life preserver.

Another fun card I made for my husband for Father’s Day.  It is called a box card and could easily be changed to be a birthday card or wedding or any kind of celebration.  I did make one before where you could fill it with labels for Christmas gifts.

And of course the card had to have a few tools included.
