Just Us Girls #327 - Photo Inspiration

Hi friends!  It's time for another challenge from Just Us Girls, and this week is Photo Week!
 
Here's a close-up of the photo Sharyn chose this week.
 
I went very literal, as you can see!  I had this anchor die and cut it four times:  once from wood pattern paper and three times from white cardstock.  I stacked them together for dimension.  I scored the yellow cardstock every half inch, but I don't think you can see it.  I wanted to mimic the paneling in the picture.  And of course, the blue and white chevron comforter was a major inspiration!  I added the blue strip with the embossed sentiment and wood star sequins.
 
You can see more from the JUGs design team and our guests on the JUGs blog.
 
Thanks for stopping by!

This is fantastic! I love that wooden stacked anchor and the little stars with the sentient. The scored yellow paired with the blue chevrons is gorgeous! Wonderful design!

This is so beautifully designed and balanced, Lisa. A fantastic masculine card, which are agonizingly hard, but you have aced this. The woodgrain is awesome and the balance of the white embossed sentiment paired with the stars on the navy strip just makes this panel. Love also that you used yellow in this. The creative wheels went into overdrive on this one;)
