home is where the anchor drops.



Post 1 of 2 for me today…click HERE for my carbs card.
So many stamps, not enough time.

I’m trying to catch up on my stamp purchases…what a problem to have, eh?  Obviously, I may or may not have a shopping issues (sigh), but I can’t resist cute stuff.

Here’s a card using 2 new sets:
I finally inked up my 

Sweet Stamp Shop

Ahoy!
and

Sail Away Sayings

I did my stamping on a Project Life Americana card.
See the boat?  It has been pieced with Cherry Veneer.  The chevrons were a part of the PL card so I used them in my little scenery 🙂

I absolutely adore the Carta Bella Ahoy There Collection….who can resist kraft with white stars?

I’m a huge fan of Divine Twine and this is what started it for me:

Air Mail Divine Twine
My card was inspired by

CAS(E) this Sketch!
