I love "thinking of you" cards, so I knew I'd go in that direction. The Summer Mini catalog is ending August 31, so time to squeeze a little more play time with those stamps.
This is the a la carte stamp Sail Away. While on my design team duties over at Stampin' Up Only challenges, Margaret submitted a card with this stamp, colored with Stampin' Pastels. This really is the perfect image for pastels with the soft colors, so this also became a stamp club project.
Typically I sew on many of my cards, but I wanted to show the club girls a different way to create the stitched look with faux stitching.
Stamps: Sail Away, Teeny Tiny Wishes; Paper: Baja Breeze, Crumb Cake, Early Espresso, Very Vanilla, Well Worn DSP; Ink: Early Espresso, Black Stazon; Accessories: Stampin' Pastels, Paper Piercer, Signo white gel pen, Word Window punch, Modern Label punch, Early Espresso Baker's twine, Square Lattice embossing folder, Big Shot, Dimensionals.
Thanks for stopping by!
