For this beachy card, I wanted to use the Naturals Ivory cardstock as my base because it has that sandy, speckled look to it. Distressing the edges of the focal image also adds to the natural, windswept look of the piece, and I thought the linen thread reminded me of those old, thick ropes you find on docks and piers. "Warmest wishes" is the perfect sentiment for this summery scene, especially since the font is a bit sketchy and scratchy, like the birds. Finally, I put two brads on the right side to balance out the linen thread on the opposite side. Thanks for looking!
