Hi all :-) I am here with a very 'On Trend' Nautical Card ,,, have you seen how many nautical crafty products are floating around at the mo',,, a whole sea of them hehehe :-)

We have some changes a' happenin'  over on the Crafty Ribbons Challenge,, we are now going weekly so you will have twice as many opportunities to win some gorgeous ribbons ! :-)

We are also welcoming a new girl to the team,, welcome aboard Pauline ! :-) Pauline also designs for the Craft Stamper Magazine and has recently started a blog so please drop by and 'follow' :-)

This week it's Charlotta's turn to choose the theme and she chose ,,,,

CIRCLES ,,,
so circular shaped creations, circles used on your creation, whatever you like ,,please don't forget to add a ribbon too :-)

Ali is giving away a fab selection of blue ribbons this week



I decided to make a circular card and used some of my fave RED/WHITE Saddle Stitch Ribbon from the Crafty Ribbons Store 





I love the way this turned out ! To make the card stand without rolling I chopped a little bit off the  bottom of the inside to make it straight, though I did toy with leaving it so that it would roll with the waves :-)


Apologies for the photo's, I have a new comp and haven't quite got the hang of photo editing, though I am trying ,,, :-)
