Papertrey Paper Dolls Challenge

I decided to play along with the Dolls' first challenge. The challenge is to make a card based on this sketch-

 
So here's my take on it-


 I will eventually put away Masculine Motifs and this Pink Paislee paper.  I'm just in love with it right now, and can't seem to keep my hands off lol.  I made a simple card base out of Pure Poppy cardstock with the woodgrain impression plate, and layered two strips of patterned paper.
I stamped the sailboat in Enchanted Evening ink, and cut out with a scalloped oval nestie, and "tied" it down with some rope twine.  I finished the card with the buttons and the sentiment.  That sentiment is actually one of my favorites, but I never get to use.  Check out the Dolls' blog to read more about the challenge, and see what that talented group of ladies have done!

Supply List- (All supplies are from Papertrey Ink, unless otherwise noted)
Cardstock-Pure Poppy, Stamper's Select White, Spring Rain
Patterned Paper- Pink Paislee 365 collection
Stamps- Masculine Motifs, Polka Dot Basics II, Sentiment from Hannah's Stamps
Ink- Enchanted Evening, True Black, Fresh Snow
Misc.- Die- Spellbinders, eyelets (misc. ), rope twine (SU!), New Leaf Buttons
