FMS393 Thanks So Much Nautical

Yes, you will see this suite lots!

I used the Come Sail Away suite along with the

Come Sail Away Memories and More card pack.

I used the pack for the background print and the 

sentiment sticker. 

I layered these on white along with some Balmy Blue

 and Night Of Navy card stock. All these I placed 

on a Balmy Blue base. 

I stamped on the white card stock 

the light house in Navy, the anchor in Crumb Cake,

and the compass in Balmy Blue. I cut them with the 

matching dies called Smooth Sailing dies.

I punched the compass with the 1 1/2" circle punch.

I added a gold pearl to the compass 

plus some Navy twine to the anchor. 

This suite is so easy to use! 

Hope you can play with the sketch challenge

Great sketch by Jaydee and I got to use my fav set/suite in the new catalog!

I pulled out the Sailing Home set with the Smooth Sailing dies to match.

I used the Come Sail Away DSP with the strip print down a piece of 

white card stock stamped with Seaside Spray inked birds.

I layered those on a Night of Navy base.

I cut the Layering Oval in Navy and started adding some cool elements.

I stamped the boat in Night of Navy, the compass in Seaside Spray,

and the anchor in Soft Suede. Quick bit of marker to the boat in Balmy Blue.

I cut the hand of the compass and the rope with the dies. 

I added a silver pearl to the middle of the compass. 

Lastly, I stamped the sentiment in Navy ink on a white strip to finish.

Perennial Essence With Wild Rose

I decided to try the To A Wild Rose set with the gorgeous 

Perennial Essence DSP.  I think it works out.

This Monet water color paper has such beautiful colors.

I pulled a few out by first place on a Balmy Blue base. 

I stamped the two step rose first in Blackberry Bliss

and the second stamp to color in with Blackberry Bliss stamped off once.

I stamped the leaves in Old Olive.  

They came out light due to the distinktive design.

 I cut them with the matching dies called Wild Rose.

 I added the sentiment from the Good Morning Magnolia set.

I stamped it in Bliss on a white strip. I added the same color rhinestone gems.

But my eye goes right to the gorgeous DSP.

Hope you have a wonderful weekend!

Hello Magnolia Blossoms

Just got my new Magnolia 3D embossing folder

and had to play. I ran a piece of Granny Apple Green

through with the folder and layered on a Granny Apple base.

I cut the Wood Textures label with the Everyday Label punch

and added the sentiment from Good Morning Magnolia in Memento

Tuxedo Black ink. A placed a strip of Highland Heather across. 

I stamped the two flowers on white card stock in Memento and 

colored them with the Granny Apple and Highland blends.

I finished it off with some pearls.

I love this emboss folder. Makes a big impact.

Thanks for stopping by! Have a a lovey weekend!

TGIFC216 Thank You Free Bird

I think this is my first time playing along with the

TGIF Challenges. I really like this sketch.

I started with the DSP called Bird Ballad. 

I layered it on the Daffodil Delight base and added the 

other design of paper banner I punched with the 

Triple Banner punch.

I cut the stitched label die in white and stamped the sentiment 

from Free As A Bird in Memento Tuxedo Black.  

I stamped the flowers and the bird in Memento on white 

and colored with my Stampin Blends.

I punched the leaf with the Leaf punch in Old Olive paper.

I hand snipped the flowers and birds. 

I finished it off with the pearls.

Sweet card and so pretty thanks to the paper.

GDP194 Thinking Of You Shells

While I still had my set out from the card I showed

yesterday from my second fav set called Seaside Notions

 in the new SU! catalog, I decided we needed more shells.

Boy, did I see my share of them last week at Sanibel Island.

Not to mention how many I walked on while on the beach.

I stamped these in almost the same colors as yesterday's card. 

I used the Terracotta Tile and Crumb Cake but added the 

new in color called Seaside Spray.

I hand snipped these out and added them to the white rectangle

I stamped the sand in Crumb Cake and the sentiment in 

Early Espresso. I added the Terracotta behind the images 

and layered on the Seaside Spray base.

 I wanted to add more to the base but keep it simple and clean.

Hope you can play along over at global-design-project.com

FF0036 Thinking Of You Seaside Notions

 I might make a 4th of July card still but I went the 

summer theme for now because I just got 

my second fav stamp set in the new SU! catalog

called Seaside Notions.

I used some awesome colors together- Coastal Cabana,

Crumb Cake and Terracotta Tile.

I used a Cabana base and stamped a coral image in the 

same color. I added the shimmer white paper cut 

with a stitched rectangle die I brushed with some Sahara Sand ink

with my aqua painter.

I stamped the sand on the bottom in Crumb Cake

and the sentiment on the top in Cabana.

I stamped the seahorse in Cabana, the sand dollar in 

Crumb and the the shell in Tile then hand snipped them to layer.

I finished it ff with some Crumb sequins.

I just got back from the beach and miss it already!
