Raise the Nautical Bar!


Happy Earth day and beautiful Friday everyone! It's our last day of spring break before the beautiful Easter weekend, ahhhh...where does time go when you're being lazy? ;)
This week over at Raise The Bar, we have a fun new nautical theme:

BLUE, WHITE, and STRIPES

Your card doesn't have to be sea-related, just as long as it has these 3 elements in it somewhere. For my card I inked up Hats Off Anya again, just because she looks like she'd be in a beautiful yacht with her sweet hat and outfit. The striped paper is from M's Recollection line, the wonderful boat patterned dp is from Claudia & Co.'s Echo Park sampler pack. I also used the current CASE sketch from Wanda on the Farm Fresh Challenge blog.
I am also entering it into the following challenges:
Top Tip Tuesday's open challenge - and for a little tip, use your embossing folders beyond the season it's intended for! This striped folder is actually a candy cane stripe for Christmas, but rotated it becomes vertical stripes. :0)
Incy Wincy Designs: Bright and bold
Make It Monday: Anything Goes

Now come on over to the Bar and see what the other designers created! Click {here} to hop over to the blog, and link up your work for your opportunity to become a Guest Bar-Tender. Thank you so much for coming by everyone, have a PERFECT Friday!

♥ & Aloha,
