Hi there. Happy Thursday. Where has this week gone?
I saw a great sketch across at Sunday Stamps and decided it would be perfect for some of the new paper from the 2020/2021 Stampin' Up! catalog. There is a new suit coming out and I wasn't sure that I would like the papers, so I bought the World of Good Memories and More card pack. That way I was able to try out the papers. Also, I just love some of the elements that come with the pack! I wanted to make a masculine card, so I paired the paper with an images from the Sailing Home set.
Here's the sketch:
I added two different DSP elements to the base of my card and used one of the sticky labels as the backdrop for my sentiment. I stamped the dinghy onto a stitched circle base and added a few seagulls from the same set. I popped that up with some fun foam and then added the sentiment. I really do love the papers and wouldn't normally use glimmer and shine on a masculine card, but I think the images are perfect and I love the touches of gold.
Here's my card:
On a personal note:
OK... how on earth is it possible that we had the heating on yesterday in the middle of May? We have had lows in the high 20s and highs in the low 40s. The birds are confused. The plants are confused. And me? Well, I was just cold! However, today the sun is shining and it is going to get to 75! After the rain we had this morning, the plants, grasses and trees should be happy and should start to green up and flourish.
I'll be back tomorrow with another card. In the meantime, warm hugs and prayers for those of you who need a little lift tonight.
Hugs
Jaydee
