I am working on building my stash of masculine cards as I realized that I really don't have that many. Today I have a card I created using the No Worries collection by CTMH along with the No Worries Compliments.
It is a great collection for the rustic, manly feel I wanted :) I thought that this card could be used for many things although, retirement is what I was going for. I used a fishnet die for the background and the anchor die is from Echo Park. I also love the thick twine from CTMH. The celebrate die is also from CTMH.
Once that was all done I was done layering and adhering all of the pieces. I added some sequins and 'water drops' for some added interest.
The sketch is from:
I went with the colors from the fusion challenge and took the 'stars and stripes' in a bit different direction (starfish and nautical stripes :) )
And since hubby and I are headed on a Mediterranean Cruise in a few weeks.... this photo made me think of cruising so I am also playing along with JUGS.
