OCC- Day 2 Border Gap

Today was another amazing class full of ideas for card making. First I wanted to try Kristina's border gap die cutting.

Here's my try...


The picture could have been better... I used Paper Smooches Wicked Nauticool
stamp and die set. With some masking, the sailboat appears to be floating- the sails and cabin are actually paper pieced atop the stamped sailboat, allowing the thread to hold the anchor.

The silver embossed (3x) anchor, attached with foam squares for interest matches the embossed greeting. The flag on the mast is folded and appears to be blowing in the wind, giving it a bit of dimension.

Love how it looks in real life! Thanks Kristina, so fun!
