Friend-"Ship"

Hello Hello ~

Today I am sharing a card for a new bi-monthly swap I am in on SplitCoastStampers - Sisterhood of the Traveling Cards.  My friend Barb invited me to become part of this group recently. I'm excited to join yet another friendship through crafting .

Every other month, there is a new hostess and theme. The January/February theme is hosted by Kelly, and the them is to "Get Naught-y". This is what Kelly wrote about the theme:

Indeed that's what we are doing this month - getting *Nautical!* Since most of you know my obsessive love of the ocean, and to get you out of your cold months and winter snow, let's create cards with a nautical theme! Think lighthouses, sailboats, anchors, maps and more, let your creativity flow and your heart 'sail' ♥

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." - Mark Twain

We use our own stamps, paper, accessories, etc for this swap. I chose an older SU! Set - Boatloads of Fun. I stamped the boat image on cardstock and cut it out. It's been so long since I have used it ~ it was down in the basement where most of my wood-mount SU! sets are now residing. Here are the rest of the supplies I used for my card: 


Patterned Paper: Authentique
Accessories: MFT Polaroid Dienamics, Real Red Striped Stampin' Up Ribbon, 3 heart punch (SU!)

Thanks for stopping by - Hugs - LJ
