Nautical Zig Zags




 I'm currently going through my stash to see what I have half finished - I need to declutter my craft room and I have market coming up soon and I need to build up stock.  I found this panel that I'd stamped and embossed some time ago - the sentiment is from Waltzing Mouse Stamps Ocean Bound and I'd already cut it with this wonky rectangle die (Spellbinders) which I think resembles a sail!

The current challenge at the Sisterhood of Crafters is Sentiment Only and this sentiment does rather take centre stage!  

The current challenge at the Alphabet Challenge Blog is "Z for Zig-Zag" which inspired me to pull out this old Papertray Ink Chevron Stipes die.

The colour scheme is fairly classic for a nautical card but was inspired nevertheless by this {Pin}spirational March Challenge pic.


Thanks for stopping by, I hope you enjoyed your visit.  If you leave a comment, I’ll be thrilled!  I’ll also know you were here and check out what you’ve been up to so we can get better acquainted!

    Such a great card to highlight the sentiment and it's also a great way to use the zig zag, too! Thank you for playing with us at the Alphabet and Sisterhood of Crafters Challenges and hope you can join in again soon.

    I'd forgotten all about that stamp set at WMS Kate - such a lovely quote and fits the wonky die cut perfectly! How gorgeous is that crimson EB? I never think of buying coloured EB it always seems to be white, silver or gold for me!
