The Open Sea and the Clock is Ticking!

Hi there.  We're experiencing another HOT day.  Ugh!  It just zaps the energy right out of a person when you go out - or at least out of me.  lol

Hurry - the clock is ticking!  You only have until Sunday to take advantage of the $99 Starter Kit promotion.  If you'd like to have fun while earning some cash, join the Stampin' Up! family!  To do so, go to my SU! website here.  It may be the best thing you ever did for yourself!

Thought I'd post another masculine card that went out this month.  This card was one of our projects at Pam's Demo Stamp Camp back in May, and was perfect for the recipient I had in mind. 

The base is Crumb Cake, then a layer of textured Not Quite Navy.  The stripe was cut from the gray striped pattern of the Nautical Expedition DSP (a Clipper is on the other side).  Wasn't that clever of Pam?  The round map on the focal piece was stamped with Crumb Cake ink.  The anchor was then stamped over it using Early Espresso ink and a knot was tied with our new Baker's twine. (Love it!)  The square was matted on Early Espresso then adhered to the card base.  A very nice masculine card.

Need to finish packing up the rest of my stuff for Stamp Camp tomorrow.  I have a couple of slots left if you'd like to join us and live in the St. Louis metro area.  Contact information is on the right side bar.  (I'll post pics of the cards as soon as possible.)

Stay cool and thank you for stopping in today!
