Inkspirational Challenge #16 - CASE

Hi there! This is my End of Week Encouragement post to inspire to join in the current challenge over at Inkspirational!

We have a CASE for you to play with today -

Isn't just gorgeous!!

Now here is my DT card -

I have flipped the CASE inspiration.

Created with Very Vanilla and Crumb cake cardstock, this card is for the man in your life.

I have embossed the bottom panel with my Lattice folder. I have used stamps from the Open Sea set to create the smaller background panel. Then I have used the anchor for the focal point. I have used hemp twine in an attempt to tie a rope that would make any sailor proud lol.

Hopefully you will join in on the fun over at Inkspirational as we have a wonderful sponsor for the month of April - Rubber Stamp Tapestry

Thanks so much for looking xx



The Paper Players - Sketch

The ladies over at The Paper Players have provided a sketch for us to have a go at. As soon as I saw the sketch, I wanted to create something masculine and use a gorgeous stamp set called The Open Sea. I started with using Crumb cake cardstock as my base and then decided to use my First Edition DSP as well. The next panel of Crumb Cake, I have used some of the stamps to create my own DP. Not Quite Navy and Very Vanilla all worked very well together.

I wrapped some hemp twine around the card and even tried to create a fisherman's knot on the anchor. I'm happy with the end result.

Thanks for looking xxx
