Here is a retirement card that I have made using a kit called "Sea View" by the ever so talented Janet Briggs over at CraftsUPrint.
For my card I have printed the topper sheet and the decoupage sheet as I knew this one was being hand delivered so I didn't have to worry about the depth of it and posting.
The backing papers are from my nautical pad by Sara Davies over at Crafter's Companion. I love this paper pad as it goes so well with lots of images like this that I have got.
I have finished the card off with die-cut shells/anchor/ship's wheel/netting (by Crafter's Companion), pearls, sentiment from the kit and a metal charm held on with some garden twine.
