Sailing With JustRite

It's another Friday, and I am happy to check another birthday card off my July list. This one is for my brother-in-law, and is very much inspired by Denise's card. I loved Denise's card using the same image from By the Sea (JustRite), and totally loved her sailors knot. I had to look up how to tie one for myself, and used Natural Rope Twine (SU).

Stamps: By the Sea (JustRite)
Card Stock: Blue Bayou, Cream, Offbeat (BasicGrey)
Ink: Blue Bayou, Antique Linen Distress (Ranger), Copic Markers, Inkssentials Opaque Pen
Accessories: Oval Nestabilities (Spellbinders), Cutter's Kit (SU), Natural Rope Twine (SU), Piercing Template and tool (SU)


I hope you all have a great weekend...and thanks for stopping by!

Thanks for visiting!
