Just Us Girls #836 - Word Week - Water - Nautical Happy Birthday

Hello,

Welcome to Just Us Girls Challenge #836 where Bobby has selected WATER as inspiration for Word Week. From watercolouring to splattering with water to bodies of water (oceans, lakes, pools, faucets. fountains, etc.): plenty of possibilities to guide your choices.


Once again, we're delighted to have Betty Keefe joining us as our August Guest Designer.

My nautical themed card features a variety of images that I associate with 'water': anchors, lighthouses, sailboat, life preservers, red + blue + navy + grey and, of course, water droplets as my little nod to embellishments.


Please visit the main blog to see fabulous inspiration from Betty and my talented team.
Looking forward to seeing how you 'dive' into this theme.

Thank you for dropping by!

What a lovely nautical card, Carol. Great as a slimline!

Bobby said...

Your shadow box design has all the right nautical elements, Carol.

Carol...what a great collage! I would guess that slimline would fit a #11 envelope. 8x11 folded in half? The image all seem to be the perfect size...love how you did this card!

I love this nautical slimline! So many awesome images and I love the addition of the little banner flags and water droplets.

Super duper nautical themed card Carol. Great array of elements and so fun it is as a slimline one too.

You really had me at nautical and what a great arrangement of the elements. I especially love the piece of wood, the water droplets and those flags on the top left. You have a great collection of. patterned papers as well! Love everything about this Carol!
