Made this for a neighborhood/daycare friend whose father suddenly passed away this week. On the inside I printed "May Christ, Your Savior, anchor you through the storms of this life." Faithful was sweet to send me some of the Ship Ahoy images....Thanks Faith. And, I made the rope on the anchor from a spool of thinck thread. WE learned, with our kids in Vacation Bible School this summer, how to make rope like the fishermen would have in Biblical times. I just used the same process on a much much much smaller scale. Worked like a charm.

The rope adds a nice touch.
