Here is a copy of the card that I created using the stamp image above:
To create this card, I took a kraft cardstock segment and folded and scored it into a card shape. Next, I rounded the two right edges using my EK Success corner rounder. Next, using Memento Desert Sand ink, I dragged the pad across the outer edges of the card. Next, using some dies that I had on hand, I cut the waves, the sun and the ship. I adhered the sun to a piece of trimmed white cardstock. I added the waves also. Next, I placed the ship on some adhesive fun foam, and trimmed the outer edges. I poured some yellow glass beads on top the ship and they stuck to the foam in the openings. Then I added a sequin to the boat. I put Wink of Stella on the waves, then added sequins and the boat. Next, with coordinating cardstock matching the sun, I stamped the sentiment using the same Desert Sand ink pad. I also had some black ink also added to give the text a feeling of movement. I even slightly moved the stamp while stamping. I thought this would mimic the water's movement.
I added a sequin to the text box, and placed it on the cardstock using flat adhesive. I added this white rectangular panel to the card as a whole. Then, I tied some twine in blue from American Crafts to the left side of the card, trying to give it a somewhat "nautical appearance" by twisting it and making it uneven.
I can't stop creating with Suzy's stamps. The stamps at So Suzy's Stamp of the Month Club are adorable! I encourage you to join the club today! I'd love to see the projects you create with the monthly stamps! Thanks for stopping by!
