Sailing Home Cards
Hello Dreamers!
I hope you’re doing well in the new year? What are your plans for 2020?
Today I wanted to share with you a set of four cards I made using the Come Sail Away Suite from the annual catalog. When I got my catalog at OnStage last year this was the first suite that I was drawn too. Very neutral and blue is one of my favorite colors.
This time around I actually made FOUR projects. Partially because some of these projects are made using the Memories and More card kit as well as a small card.
This first card was made using the Whisper White Note Cards & Envelopes. I am running out of Whisper White cardstock so this was my solution until my next order gets here. I cut a piece of Night of Navy for the background layer behind a 3X4 memories and more card. I also used the Thanks stamp in Crumb Cake and cut it out using a die from the bundle.
This is my small card, inspired by a card I saw in the annual catalog. This card measures 3.25X3.25” and is a top folding card using Mossy Meadow. I cut a piece of the designer series paper down to 3X3 and adhere it to the card base. Using coordinating ink, I stamped both the anchor images as well as the compass image. I used a small circle die from the Layering Circles Framelits and the coordinating anchor die from the bundle. I stamped the sentiment using Momento black ink and die cut it with a die from the bundle, adhering it using dimensionals.
This is another card made using a memories and more card. This is a top folding A2 sized card using Whisper White cardstock. I cut the memories and more card down to 3 13/16 X 5 1/4” and backed it with a piece of Balmy Blue cut down to 4X5.5”. I adhered them to the card base before adding three arrow stickers from the sticker pack that is included in the memories and more kit.
For this last card, I saw this memories and more card and knew that I wanted to use it. I don’t have enough cards that are made for men, so I figured that this would be nice for a masculine birthday or Father’s Day cards this year. This is probably the most simple card I made for this project.
I used a Night of Navy top folding card base that measures A2 sized. I cut down the card to be 4X5.5” and adhered it to the card base before stamping and die cutting an anchor in Night of Navy. I adhered it using some glue dots and this card is done!
See how easy these cards are? What have you made using this suite?
You can always order from my online SU shop!
