For the 'Free For All' challenge - base our card on something we are reading: "TRUE COMPASS" - the posthumous memoir of United States Senator Edward M. Kennedy. The Kennedy's summered on Cape Cod and loved sailing. Fascinating family.
For the 'MIX' challenge - use primary colors (Red, Blue & Yellow). I should have read the instructions more carefully. I've also used navy and gold (my bad - sorry Lydia).
The compass is a vector image, colored and covered with Diamond Glaze and Stickles. The whale was sort of scribbled, so I painted over it with white acrylic to make it solid white. Added a strip of washi tape next to the whale/wheel strip. Stuck a gold Dazzle in the center of the compass. Die cut the anchor (Impression Obsession) - computer generated sentiment. The circles are both by Spellbinders.

Fascinating family for sure. That book is on my list to read. Great card with the nautical compass.

Priscilla,
Love the circles taking center stage and the images but what caught my eye right away was the lovely little stripes of gold in between the black on the left! Just love the way it looks!!
