The challenge at Heart 2 Heart this week is to use the Regatta Paper Pack. When this paper pack was first introduced, I was not a big fan of it but it has grown on me. I have used it in various ways but this time, I decided to stay true to the original use it was designed for and also use the stamp set that was designed to go with it - My Anchor.
I like the idea of sending a card to someone to let them know how much they have helped me out or "kept me afloat" so I decided to use that sentiment. The large boat with the anchor was the perfect combination of images to fit the sentiment.
A little bit of embossing and hand stitching... here is the final product:

I love that little paper boat! So cute!
I love nautical and your card is fabulous! I especially like what you did with the ink blending in the background and on the sentiment. I should have tried this challenge because I have sooo much nautical paper...
I had just made a Regatta card he week before, so had to make another for this challenge, and wasn't sure what I would do. Love all the patterns and the stitching.
