Let’s Sail Away

Now I have my mojo back I’ve been on a bit of a roll with different stamp sets, and I just can’t get enough of the Sail away suite. There are so many possibilities with this set, and it more than fits my 5 ways rule! So far I’ve used it for scrapbooking, making cards, in a photo album for a friend and on tags, the possibilities are endless! And its been on my desk pretty much permanently since it arrived.

For my last class I used it to make some watercolour cards......

For these cards I used a couple of different watercolour techniques, a mix of using sponges and brushes to make the backgrounds, and a mix of colouring with watercolour pencils and a aqua brush and ink pads. Finished off with a bit of stamping using the high tide stamp set, and some of the images from Sailing Home, which are then die cut with the matching framelits, and I had 2 simple quick cards.

Next I turned to a moving card.......

This was a slider card, made with some help from my penny jar! A hidden greeting when the card is closed and then revealed when it slides.

If you would like to purchase any of the ‘ingredients’ please drop me a line.

I’ll be back soon with one more card in this set, but for now I have small people waiting for a trip to the beach!

Happy stamping
