Anything Goes! - Fab 'N' Funky #439

Well, this week over at Fab 'n' Funky, you've got free reign to create whatever you like, and as I've just taken possession of the complete collection (had to, its the law!) of Sara's latest Signature Collection - Nautical, it was the perfect opportunity to have some fun with that.

The design team did an absolutely awesome job with samples on this one and so anything I now do with it is going to pale into insignificance, but I just love this collection, the colours are fabulous, and as I live by the sea, it's just perfect!.



I decided to make a box card and use the porthole as the aperture in the middle, the lighthouse in the background is one of the 6x6 backing papers, the wood effect on the front is created with one of the embossing folders which having run through my Gemini, I then water coloured with some Harmony water reactive inks (Ocean Blue & Green Topaz), and then inked over with Friar Brown, I love the effect it created.  All of the other embellishments on the card are also in the collection, including the shells at the bottom which look so realistic but are also just bits of card stamped with the shells and then die cut - they come with their own dies!!!! just amazing!

Anyway, enough of me getting all excited and over to you - what will you share with us at Fab 'n' Funky this week?
