This seriously might be one of my favorite PI’s EVER! I just love that sailor dress!! I started this card with a Sweet Tooth card stock base, then cut Fishnet Cover-Up Die-namics from a piece of Kraft card stock and adhered ~ half of it to a Nightshift Blue card stock layer. On more Kraft card stock and with Nightshift Blue ink, I stamped the anchor, from another set releasing this month, Go Overboard, to create my patterned paper. On top of the anchors I stamped the new Striped Background using Versamark on the diagonal for some subtle shading. I added that to the bottom of the Nightshift Blue card stock layer and adhered some Nightshift Blue grosgrain ribbon around, then tied on a Nightshift Blue button with hemp cord.

I stamped the image on
X-Press It Blending Card with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored the image with Copic markers. I cut it out with an Oval STAX Die-namics die and matted it with Kraft card stock also cut out with an oval die. I popped the whole thing up on foam and it was done!

A sentiment from the set was stamped on the inside.
