Sailing Home and Come Sail Away for Just Add Ink #512

Happy Tuesday.

I have a card for you toinght featuring one of my favorite Stampin' Up! sets - Sailing Home.  The sketch across at Just Add Ink is an usual one and just screamed "use lots of DSP" at me!

So, as it was screaming use lots of DSP, being a well-brought up young lady (HA!) I obeyed :-)  I used 3 different DSPs from the Come Sail Away DSP (another set I'm hoarding) and cut them to fit the sketch.  For the central element, I cut a circle in white and popped it onto a Night of Navy circle.  I stamped the sentiment and 3 seagulls and then added the lighthouse from the Sailing Home set.

Here's my card:

Sailing Home Come Sail Away (1 of 1)

This is another card that will be going in the next batch of cards for seniors.  I spent time this weekend making masculine cards, as I lean much more to feminine cards and this set - and paper - really does work so well for masculine cards.

I will be back tomorrow with another card, but have a wildlife photo to share before I sign off.  I caught this shot of two female grosbeak at the feeders.  They really are amazing birds and are so different to their very bright and beautiful male counterparts.  Mind you, I do think the females are just as beautiful, but in a totally different way.

I'll be back tomorrow.  In the meantime, warm hugs and prayers for those of you who need a little lift tonight.
