I really struggled with this card size! Out of my box! Thanks for pushing me today!
I just bought this wonderful sentiment from Obsession Impression, or is it Impession Obsession? Without looking at the package, I forgot which word comes first! Sorry! I paired it with the lovely SU! image Sail Away. My card is pretty simple, hardly any embellishments. I did add more birds around the ship to expand the image some.
Have a great Thursday! Give someone a kiss!

Love how you worked the ribbon around into the design of this card.

Beautiful card! Love how you did your design with the ribbon. Anchoring the scene with the ribbon across is perfect. Lovely card. Thanks for playing in the challeng.e

Easy to remember, Lesley....I comes before O so it's Impressive Obsessions. How's that? I love how you shrunk the card by placing the ribbon in each corner; it draws the eye right to the focal point. At first glance, it appears you used that corner punch that has the same look. Beautiful card~

Oh I love this Lesley! I love how you divided the space with your ribbon... breaks up the tall card and gives definition to the sentiment and image separately! Love that!

Wonderful quote, love the extra birds. Less is more..........perfect as is! Reminded me I forgot to add some small birds to the sky in my own. Drat! (and I never remember OI or IO either!)

IO , alphabetical order!! That's how I remember, anyway. It doesn't look as if this had been a struggle at all - the ribbon framing is fabulous and really adds to the nautical feel.
