Row, Row, Row Your Boat (gift box) a Father's Day Blog Hop for Simply Crafty SVGs

Welcome to my stop on the Simply Crafty SVG's Blog Hop.  You should have arrived from Janet Packer's blog

For my part of the blog hop, I've used the charming Fishing Boat Gift Box from Simply Crafty SVGs

Leave a comment on this blog (and please follow me).  I have a $5.00 gift certificate for the Simply Crafty SVGs store to give away to one lucky winner.  It will be chosen at random and announced on the  Simply Crafty SVGs

My dad loved to fish.  Sitting in a row boat, fishing, was one of the more relaxing things he could do on Father's Day -- or any day.  This project brought back many wonderful memories of fishing for hours with my dad.  He was my anchor.  I had him in mind when I computer generated this sentiment:








We had a red boat when I was a child, so I had to make a red fishing boat gift box.  It had wooden oars, a gray interior, and a black anchor.  The only thing it didn't have was fish trying to jump into the boat, although we often joked about it!

I hope you enjoyed my contribution to today's hop, now hop on off to Lena's blog for some more wonderful inspiration!
