Hey! How is your week going so far? Easter has come and gone and now it's time to start looking towards Summer! We ended up having a very nice Easter day. A great sermon at church, great breakfast out and a movie! We went to see Water for Elephants. It was terrific! I loved the costumes, the animals, and all the action. I definitely recommend it and it is more of a girl movie. DH liked it, but not as much as I did. It was just a nice day out.
So, to get in the mood for the next change of season…I have a little nautical action for today. My card was made with the GORGEOUS collection from Webster's Pages called Yacht Club. Seriously gorgeous. The motifs remind me of New England Summers and Cape Cod (which is where we got married). I made a card that could be either masculine or feminine. Okay, enough blabbing…here it is!
The little banner flags were made out of the frame stickers that are part of the collection. I punched them out with my triangle punch and the used some twine to mimic rope. I had those little shells in my stash. I used a dark cranberry ink for my sentiment.
This is kind of a cool technique…Tear one piece of paper and put another piece underneath it and then fray the edges. These papers all go together so nicely! Love the anchor!

Wanda, I seriously love this card. Those Webster’s Pages papers are gorgeous! Gotta have them! The way you added the sentiment among the banners is perfect. Love the torn corner. Awesome card!!
Oh Wanda!! This is a gorgeous card, so full of interesting things to enjoy! I love Cape Cod and that’s exactly what I thought of when I first glimpsed your creation. Which triangle punch do you use? I’ve always wanted one to create my own coordinating banners like you’ve done here. You are one awesome paper crafter!!
