Memories of Sailing

What a beautiful weekend we had here in the desert.  Windows were open, temps were mild, and fresh air came in! I was reminded of the great days growing up in So Cal.  My best friend in high school, Jill, and her family had a sailboat at the marina.  I spent many a weekend with them sailing to Catalina, Channel Islands, and of course, varnishing the teak.  Patty Bennett's Sunrise Sailboat brought back great memories of sailing.  I love the feeling of being on the ocean.


This is a book fold card. I had never used Two-Tone cardstock or sanding blocks before.  I love the look of the white center of the paper coming through.  The Sunrise Sailing Hybrid Embossing Folder will emboss the paper and emboss and die cut the boat.  Blending some Lost Lagoon gives depth to the ocean. The Real Red and White Baker's Twine adds a nautical theme--be sure to fray the edges.  Let me know what you think----Susie
