Something beginning with B at Ooh La La Creations

It's new challenge day at Ooh La La Creations and the theme is "Something beginning with B".

I've chosen this lovely image and paper featuring Boats, which can be found on the Boys to Men CD, available here.


I used to live close to a fishing harbour on the very north coast of Scotland, and my husband used to live close to one in Cornwall, so although at opposite ends of the island, this scene is very familiar to us, as is the rope that is left trailing and looping all around the quayside, depicted here with twine. 

I stamped a wavy border around white card for the background and embellished my loop of "rope" with a die cut anchor - in fact I layered to together because a single one looked a little flimsy.
