FMS192, CASology & The Challenge...Nautical Thank You Card

Hey everyone,
 
Today, I am sharing a card I made using the sketch this week at Freshly Made Sketches, the cue word from CASology - Nautical, and the theme challenge at The Challenge - Nautical:
 

                             
 
 
 
 
                                
 
 
 
 
My card:
 
 
Since I had SU! By the Tide Stamp Set on my craft table, I decided to create a Nautical thank you card.  Using the skewer for the rod and some twine for the line is not my original design.  I actually saw this great idea on Pinterest a year ago, but unfortunately, I was unable to find the card.
 
Supplies:
Paper: Whisper White, Night of Navy, Real Red (SU!); Stamps: By the Tide (SU!), Thanks a Bunch (Hero Arts); Ink: Not Quite Navy, Sahara Sand, Early Espresso; Tools: Classic Circle (Spellbinders), Other: Skewer, Hemp Twine, Stamp-a-ma-jig, Sticky Strip
 
 
Thanks for stopping by today,

The Challenge & Hand Stamped Sentiments...Make a Wish



 Hey everyone,
 
Here is a quick card I put together during my lunch hour for this week's The Challenge and Hand Stamped Sentiments
 
 
 
 
I was curious about the inspiration photo over at The Challenge, since I've always wanted to give the chalkboard technique a try, so I knew I wanted to incorporate that into my card.  The sketch over at Hand Stamped Sentiments was perfect.
 
 
 
Supplies:
Paper: Soft Sky, Whisper White, Basic Black, Basic Grey (SU!); Stamps: Flower Shop (SU!), Big Wishes (IBS); Ink: Whisper White Craft, Blushing Bride, So Saffron (SU!); Tools: Classic Circle  (Spellbinders); Other: Square Lattice Embossing Folder (SU!), Create a Critter Cricut Cartridge (for the leaves), Soft Sky Seam Binding Ribbon, small pearls for the flowers.
 
Also sharing: Seize the Birthday - Anything Goes Birthday and Inspired by Stamping Customer Gallery Contest.
 
Have a wonderful weekend,

Polka Dots Mother's Day Card

Hi everyone,
 
The theme challenges at The Challenge and Fantabulous Cricut (Celebrate Mom) were calling me with its simplicity.
 
 
                                       
 
My card:
 
 
 
 
I wasn't in the mood to stamp so I took out one of my favorite Cricut Cartridges, Love You a Latte, and created a Mother's Day card.  This is one of my favorite cartridges because it's filled with coffee themed images such as espresso machines, teacups and mugs.
 
Supplies:
 
Paper: Whisper White, Baja Breeze, Pretty in Pink  (SU!), Dots Stack (DCWV); Stamps: None, Sentiment Generated by Computer; Other: Cricut Expression, Love You a Latte Cricut Cartridge, Baja Breeze Seaming Binding Ribbon; Small Tag Punch (Martha Stewart)
 
 
Thanks for stopping by,
