CAS[E] this Sketch #134

Chrissy has done it again, folks!  Challenged my little creative brain and it needed it! Take a looky-loo at this sketch:

Mind blown?
 
I'm finally getting the chance to break out my July SSS kit!  It was waiting patiently in my stack of mail when I arrived home from our trip.  It hasn't seen the light of day since ... and it is so full of wonderful Oceanside goodies. 
 
I've created a little whirlpool of the patterned papers from Authentique right down to the bottom of the sea.  Add one cute little anchor paperclip and, AHOY Matey... okay - she's gone overboard!! But still CAS... I think?
 

 
The sentiment is a die cut from PTI Wet Paint II ... 'anchor me' compliments of Word and my PC.
 
That's a wrap for me today ... can't wait to see what Chrissy has inspired you to make. See you in the CTS #134 gallery!
 
Thanks for hanging out with me for a bit today - always tickles me when you do...

    Sweet mix of papers, and I love that you tied a silver string between your you and the anchor clip. Fabby font on your sentiment as well.
