Sail Away with Me

Hi crafty friends! I have a fun card to share using one of my favorite pieces of cardstock- Kraft! Oh my goodness. In fact, there are a few additions to this card that reminded me of why I love card making.

A simple addition of stitching on a card always strikes my fancy!

Furthermore, I found this stamp set really innovative! It’s a four step layering stamp set giving the user the ability to mix and match different colors create the cutest sail boats. How fun is that? At first, I felt a bit intimidated when aligning the sail boats. BUT… Catherine includes an alignment guide with the stamp set making all the feels of “how do I do this?” go away.

Products featured:

• The following Catherine Pooler Inks: Hot Tub, Skylight, Martini.

Once you get all of your supplies together and get this card started, it comes together quickly. The only additional step was adding stitching using my sewing machine down the edge of the patterned paper. While many think stitching is difficult, it’s so not. It’s a quick stitch and really adds a fun detail to any card. It’s always been a favorite addition of mine. What is YOUR favorite trinket to add to a card?

I hope you have enjoyed today’s card using the Sail Away stamp set. Not only can this be used as a great summer image, I think it would be great for a “dude” card of any kind. OR, image these sailboats decked out in pink for a spicy chic card, too! Lots of fun ideas for this set and I’m sure I’ll be using it again soon!
