I am giving you a Sneak Peek as I use the new Stampin’ Up! Sailing Home stamp set (available to customers on June 4) to create my card for today.  It was a very easy card and took little time to create.  So if you need a quick card give this one a try when you purchase the bundle on June 4.

I am playing along at the CAS(E) This Sketch challenge for today.

And…  The Addicted to Stamps and More Challenge for the week.  This week’s challenge is titled  “Make  Your  Mark”.

And…Watercooler Wednesday

WWC222 – Helen’s “All About Occasions” Challenge

My card starts with a Stampin’ Up! Night of Navy card stock base.  There are three mats, one being used as the background mat.  I used Stampin’ Up! Whisper White and Night of Navy card stock for the first two mats.  From the center of these two mats, the panel for the art piece and the mat for the art piece is cut.  By cutting these two panels from the center of two mats that the center will never be seen, you are conserving card stock, plus the weight of the card as this will eliminate two additional pieces of card stock being added to the card.  The first two mats and the background panel cut from the new Stampin’ Up! Come Sail Away Designer Series Paper (DSP) (available June 4 to customers) are adhered using Liquid Multipurpose Glue.

The art panel is watercolored using the Stampin’ Up! Balmy Blue watercolor pencil and a Stampin’ Up! Aqua Painter.  After the watercolor dries, the sailboat image from the new Stampin’ Up! Sailing Home stamp set is stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink.  The sailboat is colored using the  Stampin’ Up! Real Red watercolor pencil and the Aqua Painter. The rope across the top of the art piece is from the new Stampin’ Up! Come Sail Away Memories and More Card Pack.  The greeting from the Stampin’ Up! Itty Bitty Birthday stamp set (carrying over to the new 2019-2020 Annual Catalog) is stamped in Stampin’ Up! Real Red ink.

The inside sentiment is stamped in Real Red ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock.  The sentiments are from the Stampin’ Up!  Strong and Beautiful and  Stampin’ Up! Well Said stamp sets.

The envelope flap gets a panel of the Come Sail Away DSP adhered to it using Liquid Multipurpose Glue.

Thanks for stopping by today.  May your day be blessed!
