I folded all three of the pieces in half. The first two cards I used scraps from the 7 Gypsies Maritime 6"x6" pad. The fish and the ship I had fussy cut out before hand and was in with my stash of punch outs and diecuts that I keep handy. The fish is cut from the General Store on Ivory Cardstock. I used one of the banner diecuts from the Banners and Pennants Diecuts to make a little hat for the fish and placed a little punched out heart under its fin. The fish wasn't complete until I added a googlie eye to it. :-)
The ship cut out is from Bon Voyage on Ivory Cardstock and I tore a piece of cardstock and adhered over the bottom of the ship to create the look of water and I adhered a punched out a heart to the front along with a sentiment. I forgot to add that all the sentiments are printed from the computer.
The basket of flowers is a printable that I had cut out and didn't use. I added it to the front of the card along with a scrap of Tan and Ivory French Script Cardstock and felt heart ribbon. I also added sequins, Dew Drops and a bit of lace and twine.
I plan on added these cards to packages that will be going out in the mail soon and think each card only took 10 minutes to create.
