I wanted to make a masculine card for a Stampin' Up! party I did at Cindy's house Wednesday night. I grabbed my Beware of Pirates stamp set. Oddly enough, this is one of the first stamp sets I purchased out of the catalog last year. Perhaps because I have two tween boys and this definitely has a masculine feel to it. I embossed the ship from this set on Confetti white cardstock with Versamarke and Winter White embossing powder. I brayered More Mustand on the top part of the image and then brayered Not Quite Navy on the bottom. Then I went back over the whole thing with the More Mustard on the brayer. the background is textured with the awesome square lattice embossing folder from Summer mini catalog.
Recipe: Beware Pirates, Teeny Tiny Wishes
Ink: More Mustard, Not Quite Navy, Chocolate Chip, Versamark
Paper: Not Quite Navy, More Mustard, Confetti White, Chocolate Chip
Other: spiral edge punch, word window punch, modern label punch, winter white embossing folder, stampin' dimensionals, stampin' sponges, square lattice embossing folder
This is my kid's first day of vacation. As of 11:30 I haven't laid eyes on my 16 year old daughter and my 10 and 12 year old boys have been getting along! Yippee! Usually we have a rough start to summer with them getting used to being around each other so much. I hope this is a sign of things to come.
I got my pre-order of Stampin' Up! goodies. I plan to do some stamping this weekend and have some show and tell for ya!
Thanks for stopping by!
