For the "rope" border, I used Waltzingmouse's Vintage Labels No. 3 stamp set , which matches the Nesties Labels 3 and stamped in Colorbox Creamy Brown chalk ink. The anchor, sentiment and stars are all from Out to Sea by PTI. (PTI Scarlet Jewel, Enchanted Evening and Versamark inks.)
I wrapped a little PTI Rustic Cream twine around the kraft card front and adhered my frame over it (Spellbinders Nestabilities Labels 3 cut from PTI Scarlet Jewel cardstock). Then I added a little PTI Enchanted Evening saddle stitch ribbon and adhered my focal point label over it with foam dimensionals.
I then added a few stars stamped in Versamark to the bottom left corner since it just looked too blah without a little something more.
My goal was a clean masculine card and I'm pretty happy with how this one turned out. I'm loving these Nestie-friendly stamps by Waltzingmouse!! What a great idea, especially for someone like me who has almost all of the Nestie Labels!!
Thanks for stopping by and, as always, your comments are very much appreciated!!
