FRIENDS OF SPEEDY TV #66



Good Morning Friends, today's FOSTVchallenge is asking us to make cards based  
on a Movie, Book or Song.I did my based on an old book 
The Old Man and the Sea by Earnest Hemingway, using the sailboat
 image from the Island Life Set. After coloring I cut out in a irregular 
shape, it was matted and stitched. I then put it on the bold stripe
 with several rounds of stitching. . The webbing is reminiscent of 
a fish net tied with a button. A little sentiment completes this simple little card.
My teamies have lots of  Great inspiration. 
Think about your favorite and come join us this week.

What a wonderful card Davi.. I had to smile when I heard where you got your inspiration from the book "Old man and the Sea" because my hubby and I listened to that book on tape on a road trip when we first meet.. Brings back good memories.
