I got the idea for the porthole from Debby's blog - A Scrapjourney - you must have a look at her blog she makes the most wonderful cards, the brads are arranged a little differently on mine. I have glossed the porthole, anchor and wave embellishment with 3D Crystal Lacquer. Full details of everything I have used are listed below:
This is the inside of my card, I have used the same papers and design but left out the brads:
Card Recipe:
Image: Ooh La La - Boys to Men CD
Papers: Ooh La La - Boys to Men CD
Card Stock: Crafter's Companion - Core'dinations
Tools: Spelbinders - Nautical Frame and Accents, Standard Circles
