Scrapbooking with Anchors, Part Two

On Monday, Betsy shared some a wonderful project featuring anchors. Like Betsy, I also live close to the sea. It's easy to use anchors in their literal form and slip them into an ocean themed layout.

I wanted an additional shade of blue to go along with my sea theme. I added in the Novelties paper from the Modern Mercantile line.

                    In this layout, I used anchors to convey security and stability. 

You don't need to live near the ocean to use anchors on your layouts. Use them to document swimming pool high jinks or trips to a local lake. You can also opt to use them in a symbolic manner.
