Joanne, our CCEE Stampers Challenge hostess for July says.....
July, for those of us in the Northern Hemisphere,
is one of our warmest months.
When I think of hot days, I think of the beach.
Let’s create cards that honor beaches in some way.
Beaches are big here on the Gulf Coast of Texas, as well!! Here is my beach inspired design:
Stamps: Anchor by Our Daily Bread Designs
Hardwood by Stampin' Up
Dies: Anchors Away by Spellbinders
Seashells by Cuttlebug
Sea Birds by Impression Obsession
Here are more beautiful beaches to explore:

I love the shading on the seagulls. I love the anchor and love that scripture. Reminds me of my current new favorite on contemporary worship songs, The Eye of the Storm. In the lyrics it says,
ReplyDelete"You alone are the anchor when my sails are torn, Your love surrounds me, in the eye of the storm."
A great metaphor of hope. Hope is what grounds us during difficult times.
Beautiful card!
