Guest Designer: Rosemary Dennis

Hello friends!  Rosemary here today guest designing here on the AJVD blog!!   I have a card to share that I made using the newly released AJVD set Simply Said:  Anchor.  I just love the new Simply Said line from AJVD!
 
 
I went with a very masculine look for my card design.  I started by cutting a piece of patterned paper to the size I wanted (4 x 5 inches) and then stamped the large image from the set in black ink.  I stamped the sentiment a second time on additional patterned paper, trimmed out the anchor and popped it up on the main panel.  Some distressing and a piece of heavy hemp twine finished things off.
 
 
I finished off the interior with an additional strip of paper and one of the companion sentiments from the set.  
 
 
 
Other Supplies:
Cardstock:  Fog Grey
Patterned Paper:  Studio Calico Thataway
Foam Adhesive
Hemp Twine
Memento Tuxedo Black ink
