You are my Anchor for SCH

the challenge theme is  called,  'How Charming'.



 We had to make projects that included a charm or other metal element, corners frames etc.
I reached  for my Graphics 54 papers again to make this card.
A vintage sea side came to mind, with hopes of summer sun.
Lots of layers distressed edges and shaded with Tea Dye distress ink.
Some trimmings form my stash and of course my added Charm, the Anchor under the ribbon bow.



I hope you will pop over for all the details and see what my DT friends have been making. We do ask that you remember our style is Vintage/Shabby Chic.

Thank you for stopping by, I always appreciate the comments
 you leave for me.
