Embellish Nautical Challenge

Hello there, popping in quickly on this Monday morning to share a card for the current Embellish Challenge.  I've had the card below in my stash for a while, but hadn't share it on here just yet. When I looked at the Embellish Challenge, it reminded me of it.  I loved the look of the distressed stripes from the Practicing Creativity For the Love of Grids stamps.  I paired it with the little boat and sentiment from Clear & Simple stamps.  Hope you like them both!

Wow, these designs are spectacular! Love how different, yet the same they look and the wonderfully unique application of the hash/grid stamp!

Those distressed grids/stripes are amazing. I've seen that set, but I don't think I've seen anyone use it like this. Hmmm... may have to add that one to my cart. So happy to see your name in the gallery for Embellish!
