sailing home-true north

The Inspiration for this card came from a t shirt I bought when I visit La Rochelle in 2017.

sailing home inspiration t shirt

I used the small square die from the Stitched Shapes dies with Balmy Blue cardstock. I stamped the compass, anchor and ship’s wheel in Night of Navy ink on Whisper White cardstock, coloured them with Blendabilities and then die cut them with the Smooth Sailing Dies. I mounted the die cuts with Mini  Stampin’ Dimentionals. The base card is thick Whisper White. I then cut two ropes and knot from Soft Suede cardstock using the same set of dies and adhered them with Multipurpose Glue. 

I finished off the card with a sentiment from the Sailing Home stamps.

    This is one of the nicest Sailing Home cards I’ve seen, Heather. Perfect translation of the t-shirt design.
