Stampin' Up! Hello, Sailor Life Ring

With all this retirement and new catalog hullabaloo, don't forget this is the last month for the Occasions catalog as well.  For stamp club this month, we used the Hello, Sailor stamp set.

I love all the life ring cards I've seen come across my screen, particularly one by Helen Salter, so I had to try one.  The bold, nautical stripes are just adorable.  This card uses Fresh Prints DSP pack and the Stripes embossing folder, which is retiring.
