Instructions: Create a 6" x 6" card base from white cardstock. Cut a 5 3/4" square of half blue and half striped designer paper from the Paper Collection, ink the edges with Walnut Stain ink and adhere it to the card front. Cut a 5" square from the Paper Collection that looks like a worn map. Tear, curl and distress the edges with Walnut Stain Ink. Adhere to the center of the card front. Stamp the My Anchor Cling Stamp image onto white cardstock in Island Indigo ink. Use blending tools to add Distress Ink color to the image as shown in the sample. Cut the image down to about 4 3/4" x 4" rectangle. Tear and distress the edges with Walnut Stain Ink. Adhere the panel at an angle onto the card front. Ink up just the corner section of the My Anchor Cling Stamp Set that has the anchor with VersaMark ink and stamp it onto black cardstock. Sprinkle and heat set Clear Embossing Powder on the image. Use the anchor die piece from the Everyday Heroes die set to cut out the anchor and adhere it over the same anchor on the card front stamped image. Use a 1 1/2" gold link peel off to "chain" the anchor to the ship. Edge the image panel with antique gold twine. Attach a nautical themed charm to the upper left corner of the card with gold thread. Add Xmas Red Stickels to the flags on the ship.
